RBR850 rebooting multiple times/day
I am 16 months into the journey with the RBR850 and my manageable stability (1 spontaneous reboot of the RBR850/day) has moved to multiple, sometimes multiple per hour.
I am running the current official FW on the RBR and two RBS850 and the only other change i made was adding a guestwifi.
NG support taking me through the mind!numbing factory reset sequence, etc.
power supply has been switched out, measured, etc., but issue seems somewhat predictable and repeatable, like some stack overflow issue (just like the DHCP table limits i had earlier)
Open to any suggestions for others who have already been thru this
Thx

What actual firmware version you on? There's a few on the forums that are newer than the release version you could try.

Thanks Plemans,
I am currently on the last 'official' for my product (or at least where my auto updates take me) - namely V4.6.3.16_2.0.51
I have seen the discussion around v4.6.7.5 which i will try to get loaded today as GearHead support again seems to be very 'consumer'. Ran into an issue in teh small hours with the manual RBS upload dialog boxes (browser pop-ups) generating 'blank' when i selected the RBSs for manual upgrades. Will advise on the stability once i get all 3 decvices onto v4.6.7.5
best, JulianHa- JulianHaGuide
I updated the FW on the RBR850 andf 2 RBS850 to V4.6.7.5_2.1.7
So a brief update after 22 hours. I've had two resets (one i witnessed) and one i saw from the overnight record. I think that is more stable, but not 'stable'.
