Reboots on Thursdays
FURRYe38
I have a RBRE950 which is doing the same thing... Reboots on Thursdays - every Thursday about 2PM (but sometime in the afternoon) (just got done with another round on a Tuesday)
...
Do you have Armor enabled or had Armor enabled at all?
The 950 and 960 series are both at the same FW level and seem to use same versioning.
We don't get information on when new FW comes out. Mfrs don't make that known. Just have to keep an eye on there download page or here in the forums.
FURRYe38 - Yes. I do have Armour enabled... As for the Wireless settings, here is what they are on:
2.4 Ghz - Auto
5 Ghz - 48
6 Ghz - 69
I do NOT have the IoT network enabled.
Disable the Armour ?? -
Thanks in advance for the reply & effort !
Yes please disable Armor using the Orbi app. After its been disabled thru the orbi app. Power OFF the RBR for 30 seconds then back ON.
FURRYe38 - Turned Armor off - No Thursday reboots... I'm going to leave it off to see how long we go without a reboot... Perhaps the Armor software is trying to refresh & crashing ?? There is a lot of crosstalk on these topics... I will circle back to see if this stops the problem & how to address the loss of Armor (if that seems to become the root problem)
