I have used my WRT610N for months without reboots but to save power, I turn off the router when I and all my devices sleep at night. :)

For those in the US who might be wondering, some countries have on/off switches for AC power plugs. Heard US doesn't have them? You just "plug and play"?

System Up Time : 97 Days 6 Hours 33 Minutes 38 Seconds (Now : Tue Feb 21 2012 14:44:37)

This is from the work router - RV082 v3, think that's the actual time it was last upgraded to the latest build for IPv6 and another HTTPs patch that was annoying us. Also the dual-WAN portion i think got some tweak or something. Eitherway, haven't needed to change anything just yet.

Which router? Have access to hundreds of them ;)

Here are couple that have been on a while ;)

uptime is 2 years, 8 weeks, 3 days, 9 hours, 40 minutes

System returned to ROM by power-on

System restarted at 22:27:50 est Wed Dec 23 2009

  • 8 months later...

Router (Netgear WGR614):System Up Time 17 days 13:26:15 ( think it rebooted itself....) That's not good... I had it on for months...

Wifi Access Point (Amped Wireless AP20000G): 18day:16h:59m:46s

Re-arranged my setup the other day when I was hooking up my new external hard drive to the server. Before this it had been on for about a month or so.

Firmware: DD-WRT v24-sp2 (10/10/09) micro

Time: 21:15:56 up 2 days, 3:40, load average: 0.68, 0.42, 0.18

I set my router to reboot every Sunday just to keep things smooth. I randomly get an issue where my Xbox 360 couldn't connect to the internet, this weekly reboot seemed to stop that. I am selling my Xbox soon so might turn off the weekly reboots, to be honest it don't affect much as its like 4am on Sunday so might keep it!

Probably 3 days or something as we had Hurricane Sandy the other week, power was out longer than UPS could handle too but since it came back i've been playing with upgrades/updates for devices since my uptime was lost anyways :D

Before that however it was like close to 200 days or something.

    • Closed-loop cooling and a custom 800G network protocol let the $7.3B campus run as one AI training machine. Microsoft confirmed June 23, 2026, that its Fairwater campus in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, is fully operational — and the engineering behind it makes the facility something fundamentally different from every data center that came before it. Where conventional cloud infrastructure racks up general-purpose servers and parcels out workloads to each one independently, Fairwater links hundreds of thousands of NVIDIA GB200 Blackwell GPUs into a single, coherent cluster using a two-story building design, 800-gigabit-per-second Ethernet fabric, and a proprietary networking protocol co-developed with OpenAI and NVIDIA. The result, according to Microsoft, is the closest thing to a purpose-built AI supercomputer that any company has ever placed in commercial operation. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/319205/20260627/microsoft-opens-fairwater-wisconsin-ai-campus-runs-one-supercomputer-via-800g-ethernet.htm
