Router randomly resetting

Message 4 of 4

As with other users, my router randomly resets itself with the message:

 

Device reset. Cause: System reset due to kernel panic,

 

I believe This can be cured by  a software upgrade to version 1.06 ( from information seen both on these forums and elsewhere on the internet). I currently have V1.05T installed. Amongst other things this causes great headaches with my Sky Q box which loses connection and doesn't like reconnecting.

 

I am using my original Huawei router as the Eero supplied when I went full fibre does not give very good wifi coverage and I ain't going to buy an extender if I don't need to. 

 

Can I obtain an software upgrade please?

Thanks

 

 

Router details: 

Device Type:DG8041W
Description:EchoLife DG8041W Home Gateway
SN:2153035991QUL5133568
Hardware Version:I.1.01
Software Version:v1.05t

Hi @ErnieJ 

 

This router is no longer used, I will ask TalkTalk to replace it for you with the current router.
