TomatoUSB

Hello. I have a Linksys E2500 v1.0 currently running Shibby 1.28.0000 MIPSR2-117 K26 USB Max. I am having a problem where the router randomly reboots, on avg. once a day. I am looking for some assistance in isolating the cause of the reboots. *If* my router is dying I'm open to recommendations of good Tomato friendly models.

After my most recent upgrade (117) I did factory reset the router and reconfigure it hoping it was just a configuration issue. This did not help.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Wondering about the power supply and ventilation being blocked. Either could do it.

I'm confirming daily random reboots with Shibby v128 on Linksys E2500 router (only tried V1 model). The reboots are random, and occur any time in a 12-24 hour time frame.

I am ensuring that there is adequate ventilation around the router and power supply. Only time will tell if overheating was the issue…

I have reported this bug (Issue ID# 1813 on Shibby's bug tracker).

I confirm it too.

I actually even added a small aluminium heatsink on the main chip, but it is still happening.

Hi, also experiencing same issue, random reboots every day ( some times twice or three times a day ).

tryied 30-30-30 reset and reconfig, issue remains. Also with E2500 v1, using Tomato Firmware 1.28.0000 MIPSR2-128 K26 USB Max

the router is on a clear space, no ventilation or heat issues.

I confirm on V3 as well. running tomato-E2500v3USB-NVRAM60K-1.28.AT-RT-N5x-MIPSR2-2.7-128-Mega-VPN.bin

Upgraded today to tomato-E2500v3USB-NVRAM60K-1.28.RT-N5x-MIPSR2-130-Mega-VPN.zip
We'll see how this goes.
But first impression, not a good sign when the Status > Overview says;
Model Linksys E2500 v1.0
Chipset Broadcom BCM5357 chip rev 2 pkg 8

Which is not true…

Hi!

I also have the same problem on Linksys E2500 v3 running newest Tomato Firmware 1.28.0000 MIPSR2-131 K26 USB Mega-VPN.

Has anyone found a solution for that problem or is the router broken? I really need to know that, because if its broken, i can send it back until 3. of november…

I`ve stored the log to var/log/messages but its always emty after these random reboots - so i don`t have a clue what the problem behind these reboots is… :-(

Thanks for yout help.
