    AC86U sometimes powers completely off during reboot

    384. 15 here too, first time i have ever ran into this after having this router for what feels like years. Did a modem swap, hit the gui reboot, lights out, power cycle and back up. Might be time to do a clean and instal. All my flashes have been dirty, first issue i think is this.
