DG8041w Kernel Panic Version v1.08t

[raycbutler]

I had a custom firmware on my router following repeated drops a couple of years back, it seems that this has been updated today causing panics and restarts every 2-3 min.. how do i get this reverted please?

Current Version  on the device is v1.08t

Hi @raycbutler 

I believe that V1.08 firmware is rolling out to a limited number of customers before a full deployment in the near future.

I'll feed this back to our devices teams now to pick this up.

Thanks  

Karl.

I had v1.06t and kept getting kernel panic errors so was upgraded to 1.07t which seemed fine and very stable.

However since just after 1am this morning my router is rebooting every 2 - 3 minutes. I spent over an hour on an online chat to be advised that it was a fault with my wiring and I would need to pay £75.00 for an engineer visit. I declined this as looking at my user log I can see that my firmware was upgraded to v1.08t at 01:04 this morning.

What is strange that during the chat I physically plugged my laptop into the router and the router stayed stable the whole time, and reverted to crashing as soon as I disconnected the rj45 connector.

Obviously firmware 1.08t has problems, when can we expect a resolution to this please?

Many thanks

V1.06 is a standard release, as I said I have never heard of V1.08.

[raycbutler]

Yes i believe it was 1.6 that was pushed to me previously to fx the issue (probably a year or so back)

I have never heard of V1.08, V1.06 fixes this problem. I'll ask TalkTalk to comment.
