FS#1965 - BT Home Hub 5A - 18.06 snapshots- Router crashes when the soft reset "Restart" key is pressed #7168
Comments
VaxMan: Update: Regards, |
Reiver: There aren't separate restart/reset button event codes so BTN_RESTART [0x198] had been multitasked to both restart and reset buttons. To prevent accidental (or malicious) factory resets, the following commit changed the restart button for Home Hub 5; I assume you changed /etc/rc.button/power [package/base-files/files/etc/rc.button/power] to do a reboot preferably with a 5 second SEEN delay such as in /etc/rc.button/reset? Might be useful to map a new button with corresponding rc.button entry with a 5 second SEEN delay till reboot for devices where a power off isn't useful. Perhaps KEY_POWER2 [0x164]. |
VaxMan: This is kinda old now Faulty memory^^ and a little confusion between projects. It seems that in the end I simply reversed the commit you referred to. TBH I have not used anything other than the code I last generated at the end of 2018 for any of my routers (currently 6) as I don't see any need to interfere with something that has been working solidly and I am happy with. |
Reiver: Created pull request adding reboot button script to resolve; |

After pressing the "Restart" button of the top left of the router, all LEDs go dark and the router becomes unresponsive.
Power Cycling the router will bring everything back up though.
