Daily Reboot of R7900p
Hello, I have had my router in place for 3 weeks and now daily, if not x2 or x3 I have to power down for 10-15 min. in reading the threads this is not uncommon. but I don't see a resolution wit...
here's what I'd try and the order
1. factory reset the router. the version you're on removed many features. don't install from backup.
2. downgrade to V1.4.1.30. do it over a hardwired connection and reset the router afterwards. Again, don't install from backup.
michaelkenward Thanks for that.
I have been doing this for 30+ years and that is a rookie move putting the modem on the wrong side.
There are no prompts. It just stops.
There is nothing in the event logs to refer to after the reboot because they are wiped.
I did see this after my reboot;
[DoS attack: ACK Scan] from source 198.255.6.34,port 21047 Thursday, Feb 06,2020 21:28:07
But those are common to any router. Some one is always trying to hack in.
