There are many customers who are on the receiving end of the Watchdog resets getting fed up with their "router problem". I hope Cambium has a fix soon.

I�m thinking how people get bent out of shape if their Internet blips for a minute, but I have AT&T UVerse at home and it is fairly common to have to go in the basement and press the reset or power button on the modem. The set top box does however show a screen on the TV suggesting you do that.

There is a lot of equipment out there (I don't need to name names) that would sit there being broken until you reset the power on it.

        Joe, that is seriously bad.� I see watchdog resets and a

        So either you have a bad unit, or 14.x is making it much

                                        At the MidWest-IX launch
                                        party last night, several of

                                        notes on the �cold

                                        seeing with ePMPs.� It was
                                        very interesting to learn we
                                        are experience identical
                                        problems across the spectrum.

                                        We all understand this is a
                                        DRAM issue with certain units
                                        you have identified.� We

                                        available to fix this short term.

                                        The bottom line is we are
                                        very frustrated and grow
