Ours has been doing the exact same. Average 3 reboots a day for last 3 weeks.

Last time I experienced this behaviour my son was suffering same with his, but not this time.
So I'm glad to hear it's not just us! Sorry can't help with what's going on though.

I can tolerate a few reboots as long as it's coming back on quickly as it has. I'm really trying holding off phoning the offshore peeps as long as I can.

My speed is all over the place to some times just 1 to 2 meg with the yellow cable connected over times upto 70 meg but never for long.
Just hope the new router makes it go because 4 weeks ago I was really happy.

Fortunately for us we're on a banded profile, stuck on 67Mb. This is from the last time we experienced this behaviour last year. One of the reasons to not ring as can't complain of speed being an issue.
Yesterday only the one reboot.
