Yes yes yes, very good idea - my iGate for example hangs all 3...7 days. Unfortunately I'm not able to find out why. For those cases a watchdog is a good solution. Momently I have a workaroud using an external power supply timer to reset once each day in the night time.

yes, very good idea. My iGate hangs after ~20h, also having not been able to find out why. I am available also for beta-testing.

after excessive testing I found out that with a poor wifi connection the iGate hangs after a certain period of time, with a good wifi connection no hangings occur.

Totally aggree, problem is that my connection drops from time to time or after a reboot of internet modem, every time this happens i have to reboot LoRa too or it gets stuck somewhere
