Wireless Router getting old!

Ive had my Belkin wireless router for 4 years now and its getting harder and harder to log on each time. normal house but with loft conversion, router is in lounge on ground floor. I'm in the loft and struggle 8 out of 10 times to connect, which means running down 2 fights to turn it off and back on again, is this due to the age of it? When I click to view available networks, it always comes up top of the list (I'm mid terrace and pick up 4 or 5 security enabled ones) with full signal, but struggles most times to connect :mad:

Getting quite frustrating now, am wondering has technology come on much and would it be worth investing in a new router? If so, any recommendations on a good one? :confused:

Many thanks in advance
