My G34 router is 2 years old and has worked flawlessly for most of that time. However over the past two months my internet connection has gone down about 4 times for no apparent reason. Unplugging and restarting the router fixes the issue but I am concerned this will keep happening and possibly increase. Do routers wear out?

Could you let us know who your internet service provider is and the internet speed plan you are subscribed to?
Was there any change made to your internet service?
Are the Wi-Fi network names disappearing when the connection drops?
Would it be possible for you to connect a computer directly to the gateway using an Ethernet cable? This would help us determine if the internet drops only on the Wi-Fi, or if it affects both Wi-Fi and hardwired connections.
Make sure that the gateway is placed in an open area to minimize Wi-Fi congestion.
