You ever get this sorted? I just upgraded the FW this weekend and now I have the same problem as you.

Hello joe_schmo,
What firmware version are you using on your FVS318N? I cannot confirm that there is a memory leak issue since I don't see one reported on our logged issues. Still waiting for @VMC to open a support case for this one. Can you provide me some details about your network and did the issue started right after updating?
Looking forward to your response.
Thanks,

Thanks for reaching out....! After owning this fvs31n (2nd one), plus a gs752tp, 3 readynas, wifi routers, etc, I was starting to lose faith... So tody, I got anoter out of memory exception. The log is here: http://pastebin.com/V7zfNCfw
Please take a look and see what you think...

Hi joe_schmo,
Were you able to perform a factory reset on the FVS318N after you have upgraded the firmware? If not yet, kindly perform a factory reset then reconfigure the FVS318N from scratch and check if same problem occurs. It is recommended to have any device be reset to factory default setting after a successful firmware upgrade.
Also, for the firewall logs to be analyzed, kindly open an online case with NETGEAR Support here and attach the firewall logs.
Regards,

You are kidding! I mean, re-doing everything from scratch would take forever, especially my DHCP reservations. Argh
