Fritz!Box 7490 on FTTC/VDSL2
« on: February 07, 2015, 06:12:23 PM »

I was wondering if anyone here owns a Fritz!Box 7490 and finds their firmware to be crashing/rebooting once or twice daily? I'm on version 6.20, the latest available for international users. The German version is 6.23. I read somewhere, possibly on an Australian forum, that I thought I saw someone else having similar issues. I was wondering if anyone here owns one or has seen others report this device crashing (on the same firmware version too perhaps)?

I haven't had much luck in getting dsl_pipe to output more detailed stats yet, the output just seems to be blank. Ironically the crashes seem to occur around the evening time so far. Line statistics on the web UI seem fine with hardly any errors at all and a stable SNRM.

I've finally figured out a way, other than dsl_pipe, to get all the stats I need - not sure on the crashing though.

It's quite detailed.

From the above data I also made some graphs.

I have no idea why you have the crashes, but I have a 7490 on 6.20, and I have not seen a crash in the 3 months that I have had it running.

However, I am not using several of the features, such as WLAN, telephony, DECT or NAS.

I see, interesting. Strange though. I did initially turn off things like WLAN, telephony, DECT, NAS, media server etc. - but I've since re-enabled everything and ironically my crashes have stopped so far (uptime over 28 hours).
