RBRE960 reboots automatically
Hi, I have RBRE960 with one satellite RBSE960. Both are running on firmware V7.2.6.31. The router, RBRE960 is randomly rebooting. The reboot is very quick, take 2-3 minutes, the LED is blinking ...
Can you post the debug data seen there along with the Show Stats page from the RBR?
Take a screen capture please.

Answering your questions:
- front led is white when this is happening
- IPv6 is enabled; guest network, spc and traffic meter is not enabled
- there is no dedicate 6Ghz WiFi enabled
- RBS is connected via wireless
- 1 RBS is deployed
- ~3000 sq ft
- the distance is somewhere between 30-50ft
- yes the router is restarting ocassionally even if the RBS is not in use
- channels are used in this way. I tried with auto but the reboot happened with that config too.
- Yes there are some wireless neighboors, it is hard to quantify. I can see 7-8 networks. Checking the wireless channels I have no conflict.
