There goes the 12 day re-boot again

MoHux · May 12, 2008, 01:17:32

How about changing router?

Sebby · May 12, 2008, 07:48:06

A dangerous suggestion where the 2Wire is concerned, Mo.

Rik · May 12, 2008, 08:44:46

Way too crude, Sebby - it would be bound to reset just as I was doing something.

Sebby · May 12, 2008, 13:51:54

Sebby · May 14, 2008, 00:08:52

I'm now 12 days and 8 hours, only 4 hours to go to see if this dual SSID suffers from the reboot issue or not!

Rik · May 14, 2008, 08:04:57

See you at one then.

Sebby · May 14, 2008, 08:08:36

I checked before I left this morning, and no reboot! So it seems the SBC firmware on the single SSIDs is to blame, for whatever reason.

Rik · May 14, 2008, 08:09:42

Time for me to go shopping then.

Lance · May 14, 2008, 08:23:48

I'm sure one will turn up soon for you Rk!

Sebby · May 14, 2008, 09:01:40

Tbh, just the fact that it doesn't reboot justifies the 13 quid for me!

Ted · Jun 19, 2008, 14:50:32

i have officially joined the ranks with the 12 day reboot syndrome

almost 300 hours to the minute. Has to be a SBC bug, very odd.

Rik · Jun 19, 2008, 15:11:05

It is, Ted, but it quickly becomes very annoying.

kinmel · Jun 19, 2008, 19:11:28

Why don't you give the Singtel firmware a twirl ?

Rik · Jun 19, 2008, 19:13:44

'Cos I'm moving to a dual SSID.

You may find reference to the problem in here there are 44 pages to wade through though.

Hi Glen,

Not having experienced the 300 hour reboot with my single SSID 2700 but intrigued by it I have been having a wade through the thread on the "scream"

At post 123 contrary to Rik's, Sebby's and the experience of others unlokia says this,

"Dudes - that original BT firmware (UK) caused my BT2700HGV to disconnect randomly from BT broadband. I don't know why, but when I restored the SBC firmware back (USA one) everything settled down again. I mean it's a little too much of a fluke, that it runs for 5 months with SBC unlocked firmware with no issues whatsoever, but as soon as I flashed THIS BT ONE in, it disconnected three times in 20 minsDudes - that original BT firmware (UK) caused my BT2700HGV to disconnect randomly from BT broadband.

Ok at post 150 I ran out of steam not having spotted anything about the dreaded 300 hour reboot cycle.

I think both the BT and SBC firmware for the single SSID have their good and bad points. All I can say is that the BT firmware on the dual SSID seems to be rock solid.

Lance · Jun 19, 2008, 22:23:50

I'll second that, sebby! And i've since i've had my E side pairs swapped i've had a really stable line.

Sebby · Jun 19, 2008, 23:05:33

That's good to hear, Lance. I was wondering the other day whether things were still stable.

Lance · Jun 20, 2008, 13:26:57

Since having it done, I've only had three (I think) re-syncs. One of those was caused by our main trip switch getting flipped and therefore losing the router having no power, and the second I think was a random burst of noise on the line.

Sebby · Jun 20, 2008, 14:33:27

And the third?

Rik · Jun 20, 2008, 15:26:22

Was caused by the router fairy...

Lance · Jun 20, 2008, 22:56:30

A power cut at about 3 in the morning! That was the first since i had the wire sorted!
