Looks like the latest 2862 firmware 3.9.5_BT causes constant reboots.
Had to factory reset and tftp boot to older version to get router stable again.

The 3.9.5 BT firmware was extensively tested with lots of release candidates. It's a shame it didn't catch all of the issues though, can you get the output of "sys ver dbg" and report that to the technical support team?

Even though the router's been factory reset, I think it might still be recorded on the router.

3.9.5 fails to load on 3.9.4.1 . Dithers for a minute then falls back with a small splash screen saying too many reboots.

Same here. Reverted to backup firmware when trying to upgrade to 3.9.5 due to number of reboots.

sys ver dbg
gives:
