    Hi

    At home we have a ruckus router. Its the main router in the house where we have 5 phones, 2 laptops, an ipad, and 2 consoles connected to it that are used everyday. We have had around another 10 on it a one stage but these are the old devices.

    When ever we download or upload files that are 100mb+ our internet keeps dropping every few minutes, or drops completly for about 10 minutes. Also we could have a connection, but we cant access websites, and sometimes its limited.

    I have tried changing the channel the router is on, and i have reset it from the mains.

    Should i get a new router to solve this, or is there another option.
