I disagree that the things you listed are necessary to prevent reboots, but they are things that couldn't hurt to try.
A couple of specific notes:
- disable gaming mode
... is actually likely to cause more overloads/overheats, not less. This is because Gaming Mode is the same "SPI disabled." SPI uses more overhead, so Gaming Mode = On is less stress.
- enable MAC filtering if you want some sort of security
... This is unlikely to help you in the reboot department. If you do this, also know that MAC filtering is a very poor security measure. It will only keep the dumbest of neighbors out. This is because MAC addresses are very easily monitored and cloned/faked. MAC filtering only provides filtering and no encryption. To put it in security terms, it is similar to putting a combination lock on a glass box and writing the combination somewhere on the inside.
