Router DG8041W restart kernel panic

[coastwalker]

Router details:

Device Type: DG8041W

Description: EchoLife DG8041W Home Gateway

Hardware Version: I.1.01

Software Version: v1.05t

Router is restarting regularly, sometimes multiple times a day with a kernel panic alarm.

1981-01-01 00:00:10 [Error][Alarm-Log] AlarmID:104001,AlarmLevel:Error,Device reset. Cause: System reset due to kernel panic, Terminal:OTHER

Would a firmware update resolve this?

Can you supply me with the file so that I can update the firmware?

Thanks.

Hi coastwalker

Apologies for this.

I've ordered you a replacement router, please allow 24-48hrs for this to arrive.

Let us know how the connection compares with this router.

Thanks

Debbie

Ok, thank you very much. My usage case means that this week the disconnects are tolerable so I will see if the issue gets resolved over the next few days.
