Re: C1000A fails several times a day, has to be power cycled

said by brouhaha6:

I've done it both with a separate PC statically configured to 192.168.0.10, plugged into a switch between the modem and the router, and using an alias interface on the router. Same results both way: for a very short while (less than a minute) as the modem is booting, I can connect with http or telnet, but after that both ports are closed, though it still responds to ICMP echo requests to 192.168.0.1. Same behavior with two different C1000A units in transparent bridge mode, don't have this problem in "normal" mode.

Just curious, why are you using a switch between the modem and router when the C1000A has four LAN ports on it?

Normally I don't, but due to the locations of the modem and router, it was easier to have the laptop near the router, so I temporarily put a switch there.
