Memory still leaking...

Excuse me, but has anyone else seen a problem with the routerboard OS and memory leakage? we are required to reboot the router every 48 to 96 hours or traffic is affected.

I am seeing this on ALL my routerboard 230's running 2.8.24 and latest firmware. We currently have eight routers in service with two more sites planned in the next month.
Each card has the mikrotik 4-port ethernet card installed. The router provides DHCP and runs OSPF.

Could someone from Mikrotik help me with this issue? I will provide any access or documentation required to resolve this issue.
Thank You.

1. downgrade to 2.8.21
2 be shure that You have only one wireless package instaled (better option is DO NOT INSTALL WIRELSS LEGACY)
I'have original RB's on few key towers with uptime from december 2004 (2.8.21 is out )

Thank you.
We are not using any wireless packages as we only use it for Ethernet routing. We use RB230 with Mikrotik 4-port nic and use OSPF.

So far we have seen uptimes change from less than 48 hours to 200 hours before needing a reboot. I was going to upgrade each RB to 128 Mb to make them last longer and improve performance.

Do you have any other suggestions? :idea:
