    Hi,

    Thank you very much for your input.

    I will try  your suggestions and maybe install a UPS as well.

    The problem didn't occur again these last days.

    Thanks again

What firmware version is on it? 

Did this just start? 

Is it a new device?

    Hi

    Thanks for the answer.

    The firmware is the latest available (can't remember the number ; I'm not home right now)

    I think the problem is present since the beginning. I bought the divice last july.

    I live in the country. There are regularly some brief power cut-offs here (for a fraction of a second). Could it be the reason ?

    I'm not sure about that, but if yes, is there a way to make the device restart automatically after a cut-off ? 

    Thanks again
