Recently my company has had to reorder a rv082 series vpn router. to replace its predecessor of the same model.
some background;
we bought 2 rv082's late 2009. and one has been working correctly for the past 9 months? while the other failed 2 months ago.
the replacement of which is now beginning to fail again.
always latest firmware 2.*
both routers locations have the same isp, 2 different subnets on the wan and lan side. and are vpn'd 2 each other.
business class cable by comcast.
the location with the router that keeps failing also has a backup adsl line set as a failover.
anywho when i say the router is failing or failed, i mean..
at first, intermittent (once a week) random restarts.
progressing to more recurring (once every couple days)..
to a more mild (once a day), until finally it begins to crash several times a day..
the one we shipped back actually wouldnt stay up longer than a few hours. and took a long time to restart.
ive tried using the snmp trap errors and the system log messages to diagnose whats wrong.. and the best i can come up with is an authentication failure sometimes before it crashes..
the new router is now in the mild stage, crashing once a day.
ive read many threads on the rv082 and noticed the blame is usually put upon the isp.
but i dont understand how or why a backup adsl line would destroy a working router..
any thoughts or questions that hopefully someone can help me with?
thanks,
~Greg
