Reliability of Networking Hardware?



Just read someones rant about how they need to buy a new router every
year or two because they get flakey and start acting up. Is this
opinion utterly bogus or do a lot of people actually have trouble with
equipment that quickly gets intermittant and flakey? If so could this
perhaps be due to lightning damage?
