  • Crontab reboot or restart fr24feed command ?

    I have a crontab job to reboot the RPi daily but this is giving me a period of 20-25 minutes offline - see image. This seems to be a perculiarity of the TP-Link MR6400 router I have that doesn't happen when using a DLink DWR925.

    One thought is replacing the reboot command with sudo systemctl restart fr24feed.

    Has anyone got any suggestions ?

    If it is indeed the router, try setting a static IP. It may be the dhcp requests upsetting it

      Add the following two parameters to /etc/fr24feed.ini, save and restart your Pis. This might help

      use-http=yes
      http-timeout=10

      Apart from that why are you rebooting your Raspberry pi?
      A short reconnect from the router should pose no problem and the feeding should continue.
