2862 shocking after 3.9.2 ? was created by juleswilko
Anyone else got a constantly crashing, wireless / internet going to garbage 2862 router?

Since I upgraded to the 3.9.2 firmware it's been driving me and every wireless user extra bananas, and even LAN users mad (when the router reboots).

I've got it on a few different routers with the exact same issue... Not sure what's going on.


Anyone else?

LOL - Yeah - I wanted to start using the 2862 as the mesh root so leapt for the firmware...

And it's completely messing with me as a result (it seems!)

Although I am also wondering whether it is to do with the Draytek ACS check in as well...

Hard to know exactly what's occurring.

I don’t find 3.9.2 any better or worse than the other last couple of versions.

I still get occasional uncommanded restarts (at inconvenient times). The std advice, debugging, and extensive logging for unexpected restarts yields no info. :roll:

Well...
Still wonder whether it’s the ACS stuff , even now I have disabled it.

But I am getting consistent lock ups when the CPU hits 80% plus for periods.

No idea wtf it’s doing.

Think it’s time to downgrade the firmware and go back to a disparate mesh setup.

It’s causing too many phone calls :-/

Did you ever get mesh to work on the 2862? I'm trying the 3.9.3 firmware on a 2926ac and the mesh setup fails to "see" any AP903 nodes from a few feet away.
