Random reboot on Netgear WNDRMACv2 with 1.9.2

Post by redhonker »

Hi,

I upgraded from 1.9.0 to 1.9.2 and kept the setting. This runs fine for a few month until I need to make some configuration change -- the configuration page was all messed up. So I reflashed without preserving settings. A day later, it appears to have stability problem. It will reset periodically and have trouble reboot.

Upon reboot, I can see the power LED goes orange and stay there for a while. Then the reset of LED (about 4) goes steady orange. In about half min, it will go green along with the LAN LED. Then the WiFi goes blue. Within a second though, it will go back to steady power LED only. The process repeats several times. Roughly 5 cycles later, it finally reboots successfully. This lasted several min. A normal power cycle is about 40 seconds, and the blue WiFi is the last step.

It can remain stable for hours and then resets again.

What could I do to troubleshoot?

Thanks

Do a fresh flash of 1.9.2 without preserving settings.

Updated the original post. I flashed 1.9.2 without preserving settings. So it's a clean start.
