378.56_1 crashes roughly once daily on AC3200

[Andy S.]

I installed the .56 release and had the same problem so on Sunday I upgraded to the 56_1 release. I see that there's now a 56_2, so I'll try that as well in case this is the mDNS memory exhaustion thing, but I wanted to raise this in case I'm seeing an unknown problem. The prior stable build was rock solid, I only started seeing this after upgrading to the final 378.56 release.

There's nothing terribly useful in the system log - it normally gets spammed every few minutes with miniupnpd messages, and when the hang occurs, they just stop until I notice the router's gone down and reboot it. I don't find anything terribly useful in the restart log either, although I did notice this in the log right after the Virtual kernel memory layout section right after boot:
"Jul 31 17:00:17 kernel: * Invalid signature of oopsbuf: EE-E7-FF-FA-8B-FD-71-DF (len 3757592403)"

Happy to provide any additional info if needed, my plan is to try 56_2 and if that doesn't cure it, I'll have to go back to the older stable build.

Thanks-

378.56_1 is in the trash.

Use 378.56_2 with a full reset to factory defaults and then minimally and manually configuring the router to secure it and connect to your ISP.

I've already completed the update to _2, gonna wait and see whether it holds. If it doesn't I'll try factory defaults and restoring bits and pieces.

No further crashes since updating to _2.
