CAX80 keeps rebooting

For the past 3 days my CAX80 has been rebooting every 4 to 5 hours. I’ve tried connecting the power source directly to an outlet and that didn’t work. I did a factory reset and that also didn’t work. ...

For those getting "[DoS attack] LAND Attack SPT:2190 DPT:2190" I have a theory I'd like to test, join me if you have the time. 

 

all wifi off

all port empty except for 2.5g or lan1 to your main puter (ie, only 1 machine connected to it, as barebone as possible)

 

wait for 1 hour, check log for 2190

reboot your cax80 (not reset)

wait for another hour, check log again for 2190

 

I'm curious to see if it's coming from within, like TV or PS4/5

hanzo79 - In my case I doubt that the DoS message is being generated by a device in the LAN (Local Area Network). The source IP address of the DoS Attack is the IP address assigned to the WAN (Wide Area Network (Internet)) side of the CAX80 by my ISP.
