Router keeps resetting

I'm having issues with my router which appears to be resetting multiple times a day.

 

First noticed Wi-Fi dropping out and did a line test.  Was told the stable of it could be interference and that might need to change the channel...  But looking at the maintenance pages, it would appear that the router itself is restarting periodically.  I say that because the device uptime resets when it happens (Along with Network, Wi-Fi and Ethernet connection).  So I know the issue isn't Wi-Fi interference.

 

Checking the logs I seem to get loads of DNS name resolution failures and also when the router throws a wobbly, it changes the date/time stamp to 01/01/2013 00:00:00..

 

As I work fully remotely and do a lot of stuff via video chat, it is starting to become a real pain in the backside!

Hi

 

All tests are clear. I'm going to swap out the router to rule out a hardware issue.  This is now on the way.

 

Karl.

Hi Chris,

It has just let me log into the account so I've put the TalkTalk number as the alternative.

 

Thanks

Hi Chris,  It isn't letting me log in to the account (Seems to be hanging on 'Preparing your dashboard', so I've put the account number in private notes instead.  Is that ok??

We'll then look into this further. Please do not post this information on this thread. Once you've updated your profile please post in your topic to confirm it's updated.
