R7800 Rebooting randomly

[Jeredien]

My R7800 reboots randomly multiple times a day. I have no clue why. Did a hard reset and on the latest Voxel firmware

Swith off WiFi and disconnect everything except a computer directly connected to the router and see if it still reboots.
If you need the log files, do e.g. like this:

I'm having the same issue but with the Orbi RBR50. It doesn't seem to reboot when hooked up to just ethernet but when I start to stream over the wifi then it reboots. I have the latest voxel firmware as well. Using the debug.htm webpage I can download the logs and I just figured out how to telnet into the router. Do I need to hook up a USB storage device in order for the logs not to go away once it reboots?

I have dmsg and the /var/log/messages going to the USB drive at /mnt/sda1 now. Any clues what I'll be looking for?

Its rebooted and I have the dmsg and messages log files but there isn't anything useful in them that I can see.

I have had the same thing with an R7000 configured as AP. Occasional resets. Theories going from overheating to a faulty power supply but without ever finding the true root cause.

If overheating is even a possibility, get a laptop cooling pad to put under your router.
I used a $15 one i found on amazon powered by USB and thanks to @kamoj
I know my CPU now runs about 25 degrees F cooler,
my 5g chip 45 degrees F cooler and 2g chip about 20 degrees F cooler.
