Archer C9 keeps rebooting/restarting randomly
Archer C9 V5 this week started rebooting randomly. I already replaced power supply from different unit (I used two other power supplies - one with 12V and 2A output, and another with 12V and 2.5A), but this doesn't helped. I refleshed firmware, used compressed air to remove dust from inside (nothing really get out, so it's probably clean inside). I saw many similar problems - what happened? It's insane!
Also I have this error in LOG, but I saw that this is "normal" (creating software that in normal condition output errors to log is not normal, but we are on tp-link, so here everything could be normal):

Reporting back: since I wrote this I did not have a restart happen - at least from what I can tell. Is there a way to see the uptime / last boot timestamp?
I do have NAT Boost off though, and I also turned off the LEDs completely.
I hope it stays like that.
Thanks for the support!

Hello, thanks for the concerning.
Sorry that there is no system uptime on the router web GUI, while you may check the system log on the router, if the timestamp gets back to the factory build date, that means the router was restarted at that time.

@jcjc The patch did not solve anything. Turning of NAT boost did. For me anyway. Works better, no reboots, still smal & short dips.

Update:
As per my last update on 17th November, I had a few automatic reboots a day after installing the new beta debug firmware. I then turned the C9 off for a short period before turning back on. No restarts since with NAT Boost enabled but my download/upload is around 105/19 Mbps so may not be triggering this function if it is still problematic.
Interested to know how others are faring.
