Hi,

Any other 2862 users encountered this issue (titled above) in recent months, since a certain firmware update; I can't say exactly which one to be fair? Current F/W is 3.9.9.12

The router only seems to be accessible for about an hour, since last boot (probably less to be honest), then all access to it becomes impossible?

The error reported when using a FireFox web browser is:
"Error code: PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR", which points to an SSL/TLS issue, plus a few other possibilites. Although nothing has really changed other than firmware.

A reboot is the only method that seems to recover the web management access.

(http :80 is disabled, so only https access is available)
SSH-ing into the router works without issue, so it's only the https hosted part that's failing.


It's an odd one, and I know this router is near EOL now, or rather EOcritical updates, so due an upgrade... ...maybe DrayTek are factoring in early obsolescence ?

My 2862 is running firmware 3.9.9.12_BT

I gave up with https for access since the router is incredibly slow to respond to the connection and only use http (and SSL command line access).
That's not new in the 3.9.9.12_BT firmware - been like that for some time.
But my router is only accessible from my LAN using a wired device so I accept that this is less than ideal from a security perspective,
