Hi,

Sometimes my router (WRT54G, OpenWRT 3.03.2) do a "hard" reboot ("hard" means that its not rebooted via command reboot. It's like switching off and on.).
It seems that it occurres if the router has routed an amount of traffic of ~100 MB.

First thought was that it would be a problem of power supply but it's not (tested with a little UPS).

Then i replaced the reboot command on the router with a little script which copies the syslogd output file to a place it can survive a reboot and then calls /rom/sbin/reboot.

Unfortunately no file was copied (former test has passed) so i assume this event is related to soft- or hardware.

Does anybody have an idea what's going wrong?

BTW, the router itself does not going hot while working.

thanx in advance,
jm

If you have a V2.2 hardware device, please read this thread: Discussion: Linksys working on the "large file transfer reboot bug"?

Yes, I have a v2.2 hardware.

Thanx for the link, RoDent, it seems to be the explanation.
