Is it possible for a router to become "overloaded"?
When I have 4 or more devices using my router, just for general use, nothing heavy like P2P, it seems to take forever just to get the router settings page to load, and my connection speed takes a nosedive, even though the other devices are idle and not downloading anything.
I suppose what i'm asking is, could handling too many open connections affect a routers performance, even though there is very little data being transfered?
Could it even cause me to lose ADSL sync if the router gets too overloaded?
