    Which is likely why they are not bothering to fix it.

  My thoughts exactly … if a company’s response to a problem with their equipment is to instead of fixing the problem but to ask you to replace it with a new model

  I would go buy something new … it just wouldn’t be with the same company

  This would be a great opportunity for a rival company to take advantage of this.

    It would. They could over a discount with the turn in of a d-link device and roll in some nonsense about reducing e-waste. They will probably get a nice little sales boost and tax breaks while helping the decline of a competitor.
