OK to leave gateway powered ON all the time?
We have the Sagemcom Fast 5688W gateway. This is our second one - the first one was junk. This one is working good...so far. I have a simple question about extending the life of the unit as much as possible. Is it better to leave the gateway powered up 24/7 or is it better to turn it off at night when we are not using it? The unit gets a little warm (not hot) when running, so I'm wondering if turning it off at night and letting it "rest" might extend its life. Or is it better to avoid cycling it on and off each day? Just curious what other users are doing. Thanx for any advice!Solved208Visto0likes4ComentariosQuestion on Fast 5688W
New owner (one week) of Fast 5688W and so far very happy with overall performance. Have had a few times where the gateway stops doing its thing and pops up message about "communication problem". Waiting to see if that is gonna be a problem… BUT, my question today is: Can I leave the gateway powered up/turned on 24 hours a day, or is it better to turn it off at night? No help on this question from the instructions in the box. Thanx for any answers!106Visto0likes1Comentario
