    Recently, I feel like my broadband is acting up, or maybe just the router. I'm sure it performs a reset evry ~24 hours because it drops usually around 05:00 (I work nights). Don't mind that, but had a look into the router page today and noticed a few weird logs. Can anyone explain what may be happening here?

    This is happening so often, I'm getting a limited log.

    For information, I've a couple of LG tv's, a PS5 via Ethernet, XSX by WiFi, along with 2 Samsungs, and a Canary camera. Annoying it doesn't always show what's connected, just a MAC address. Not sure if someone is robbing my WiFi either, but "VFIEVOX3.router" is also showing as a connected device, nothing coming back in a web search for that. Firewall has hapes of logs too, but that's a good thing?

    Think I should just get my own router, while I usually have zero issues, I'm no longer feeling that the Gigabit box is actually good and may be hampering me. Anyone got any recommendations for a decent (preferably WiFi6) router? I may working in networking, but I have no qualifications and there's so many of the feckers out now, it's hard to know which ones are actually good without breaking the bank.

    VF IE VOX3.router might refer to router itself (Sercomm RHG3006), should be able confirm if you have MAC

    As for suspected reset - it should not, if it does your custom settings would revert to factory defaults.

    Cant comment on the logs much. Speculate here...

    .Could it be that it run update? Perhaps repeating on scheduled time

    .Could it be that you have router restart scheduled, some routers have this feature?

    Check settings
