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)   ...

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)

    No idea what Armor is doing. Not the first time Armor has been a culprit is causing problems. 

     

    Only other item would be to factory reset and setup from scratch with out Armor being enabled. If not reboot, re-enabled Armor then test to see if reboots return.

      FURRYe38 Over 11 days, no reboots!!!  I dare say that Armor is the culprit - Will keep it off for a bit longer, turn it back on & wait for the crashes to happen. How does a service you pay for wreck the system?  I'm sure there is some kind of armor update happening ?

       

      Does this mean my use of this service is dead ?

        I don't know. Something that NG needs to look into and review.
