Database speed degenerates over time

[TimPen]

I have an Access 2000 database that runs on a peer-to-peer network. If I rebuild it, it is very fast but slowly the speed The problem is the database tends to run slowly over time. If I rebuild it it is very fast but slowly the speed degenerates
I want you to look at his network because I want to know if upgrading his hardware will help .
I regulary compact both the front & back end databases.

Is this an indication of a poorly designed database?
Will upgrading the network hardware help?

I also want to upgrade to Office 2010

Thank in advance

I'd ask these kind of questions in one of the many MS Access forum like forum181
