RBR50v2 Reinitializes Firmware Daily and Restarts

Every day or so my RBR50v2 reboots without warning.  It takes a few minutes for all sats to resync.  This has become a problem for my work-from-home situation.  

 

Every time when i check the log after a reboot I see a message similar to this, suggesting a new firmware has been installed resulting in a reboot.  However it's always the same message and firmware version: (with new date ofc):

 

[Initialized, firmware version: V2.7.4.24] Saturday, November 19, 2022 12:35:07

 

I've had this router since 2020 and it has been on V2.7.4.24 for months without problem before this.  No idea why a the device would re-initialize the firmware now and repeatedly.

 

So far I've connected by wire to the device and performed a manual firmware update to V2.7.4.24, which completed successfully.  However the problem continues.

 

My next step would be a factory reset, but before I go through that hassle I thought I'd check if there's any knowledge of this issue that could guide me.  

 

Any ideas?

    Something might have gotten corrupted either in the firmware or the settings. 

    I'd reinstall the firmware then do a factory reset and reinstall. 

    If somethings corrupt, reinstalling firmware and factory resetting should clear it out.
