      After upgrading from 1.2.5 to 2.2, my command line is getting 'flooded' in a sense with "Watchdog Timeout", and when this happens it also kills my WAN connection. It happens about a minute after boot and restates the message every 20 seconds or so. Ideas? Perhaps hardware issue/driver? I also cannot access the WebGUI when this happens.

      Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning.

        You'll need to provide the entire/complete log messages if there is to be any hope of assisting you in tracking it down.

        Most likely it is a NIC/driver issue, but there may be tweaks to help.

          Yeah, at the very least tell use what NICs you have so we can point you at some appropriate tweaks.
