Enable Email Logging and Router Reboots
NOTICE:
For ANY users seeing mysterious reboots of there 7 or 8 series RBR routers rebooting at random or at specific time frames, we'd like to ask you to enable Email Logging of the RBR and config...
Ok, enabling email logs seems to help stop the RBR mysterious rebooting. Mines been online for 4+ days:
Uptime would have been more however we had a brown out last Wednesday.
Nope.
We are currently in testing of this issue to see if this is the main reason we are seeing these mysterious reboots. So far my RBR850 has been online for 2+days now with Email logging enabled with zero reboots. Where as before, it was rebooting every 6-7 hours.
We've advised NG of what we are seeing and the details is all.
Where do you get the 3rd party google pw?
With in the Google profile account under Security and Privacy I believe. Should be in same section as 2FA.
Got 2FA set up but can’t find that. Just 8 digit backup codes or option to use authenticator app that scans a QR code.
I set it up with a non-gmail email account, because I honestly can’t tolerate another day of this rebooting every few hours nonsense. However, I’m still interested in how to setup with google per your instructions, as I’d rather have my gmail connected to this.
