Re: what is your best router uptime?

no idea, but currently at:

System Up Time 1940:10:25

and again the only reason for this was me unplugging it for other reasons.

Re: what is your best router uptime?

Never had any downtime unless I have rebooted for some reason, or a power cut.

Re: what is your best router uptime?

I had 1809 hours until yesterday, then had a 3 second power cut which reset the router and knocked out all my clocks, cameras and timers. It takes about an hour to set everything up again

Re: what is your best router uptime?

^^^^^
Honest, I had just boasted in another link that I had been up for weeks, then the SSEB stepped in and ruined it.

I remember when people boasted about being up for a 100 hours, the new firmware certainly helped in that aspect.
