Billion 7800N bricking itself repeatedly

[sparkler]

has anyone else had problems with this router not working after unpluging it and then turning it back on again with only the ethernet port light on no power light or anything as mine has done it when i started working again after turning it off and back again so reflashed just in case it was corrupted restarted so turned it off again so i could enter details on esupport then plugged and its done the exact same thing even though it was working right before i turned it off

Not had any problems like that with mine,

When you unplug and plug back in, are you leaving it 30secs before putting the plug back in?

From what I've seen in most routers I've had, each one holds a certain amount of power after unplugging it, so I always wait 30-60 secs.

yep ive left it unpluged for a few minutes with no luck even when it first started since it takes a few mins to bring it to the pc type all info then connect everything up again

Sounds knackered. I've even dropped mine a few times and it doesn't do that

My 7800N today started to malfunction too I think, the DSL/Internet light won't come on. I only switched it off to put in a new TV cabinet this afternoon!

a reset with Factory Default fixes it, but it happens again after I put in my auth info and reboot.

Waiting to see what Billion UK Forums say on the matter. This will be the second time I return it if it's deemed faulty. The first RMA I processed had a wireless fault from the dropouts I constantly had.

Wondering what's considered the "second best" ADSL2 router, don't think I can be bothered with the 7800N anymore. I do have a 2700 but the web interface is awful.
