I am running Merlin 3.0.0.4.374.42_0 on my router and I find it starts randomly rebooting when my daughter comes back from work and tries using Facetime on her iPhone. There are no crash messages in the syslog so I don't know what is causing this to happen - I just know that during the day there doesn't seem to be any problems it just seems iPhone and/or Facetime related.

Anyone any ideas?
 
Hi, sorry to reactivate this.

I may have a related issue. I am running Firmware:376.48_3 now and it looks like Apple devices causes random reboots of the router.

Things i have tried:
Update from Stock to Merlin -> Still reboots
Reset to factory but re-uploded config

Things i have not tried yet:
Reset to factory and start from scratch
Update IOS device to IOS 8.1.2

Observations:

During the day when i am not at home: no reboots
During day connecting to by remote to wired PC and doing stuff (ie creating big traffic): no reboot
In the evening: Since Merlin not so much reboots. When wife comes home (Iphone 5 with IOS 7) reboots. Sometims every 2-5 Minutes.

I will update my observations. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

Thx,
Marc
