One of my RB333 which I'm using as Nstreme2 bridge started to reboot several times per day.

It worked perfectly for about 3 months but the last 2 months average uptime was only about 7 hours. I changed power adapters several times but it not helped. The power adapter is connected to UPS, and other devices works perfectly so I'm pretty sure that problem somewhere else.

In logs of RB333 I see "jan/01/1970 02:00:06 system,error,critical router was rebooted without proper shutdown (cause 1)". Also there is autosupout.rif file overwrites everytime. Already tried to change RouterOS to v3.17 through many others.

/system resource print

write-sect-since-reboot: 184
write-sect-total: 712
bad-blocks: 0
architecture-name: "powerpc"
board-name: "RB333"

I see that write-sect-total zeroed after unexpected reboot.

/system routerboard print
routerboard: yes
model: "333"
serial-number: "XXXXXXXXXX"
current-firmware: "2.16"

Is there any way to fix stability without changing hardware?

e-mail all explanations to support@mirkotik.com and supply supout.rif for them.

Start with change CPU freq. to 266MHz

Any news with your problem? We have similar problem with a RB433AH.

What we found was changing the power supply to an 18vdc vice the 24vdc we originally had seems to have 'fixed' the issue.

If you look through the forum you'll see mention of this type of issue on the RB333 - it has to do with the internal voltage monitoring circuit that shuts the RB off if the input voltage goes to high....

In our case a large A/C unit (commercial) was turning off/on which caused the line voltage to spike which in turn caused the power supply voltage to spike in to the RB333 - which either shut down the RB333 or cause it to reboot.....

Changing RouterBoard to RB433AH fixed my problem. RB333 goes to another place where it works successfully till now.
