Upgrading from 2006 Cisco Router

Upgrading from 2006 Cisco Router
On my lookup, it was between 2006-2012. Thanks for nailing this down. It's bugged me for quite some time. Same points: old and unsupported, no issues. I'm very conservative & still learning.

The Ookla speedtest shows 496.93 Mbps download and 406.26 Mbsp upload. Aside from the occasional local power outage, it hasn't failed...- Quibbie
