Been happily using Olegs firmware for months now (recently upgraded from 1.9.2.7-rtn-r2274 to 1.9.2.7-rtn-r2775), following this tutorial to the letter on my RT-N16. However, it nows seems I've developed an issue I can't solve.
The transmission-daemon (2.22) process randomly stops. Restarting the transmission-daemon or rebooting within Putty starts the process again, but it will stop some time later (within the hour). Restarting the router also starts the process again but not for long.
I've completed a full re-install of the oleg firmware which didn't help.
Re-formatted the /opt partition and completed the configuration steps in this tutorial again which also didn't help. I'm at a loss.
When the transmission-daemon is working I have the following processes running

When restarting transmission-daemon within Putty I get the following from the System Log on the router
PHP Code:
Apr 28 20:05:55 rc.unslung: stop service /opt/etc/init.d/S90transmission-daemon
Apr 28 20:05:55 rc.unslung: stop service /opt/etc/init.d/S10cron
Apr 28 20:05:55 rc.unslung: stop service /opt/etc/init.d/S05syslogd
Apr 28 20:05:55 syslogd exiting
Jan 1 11:00:04 syslogd started: BusyBox v1.18.3
It almost gives you the impression that transmission is still running when doing the restart

I fear my limited knowledge is preventing me from getting to the bottom of this one and therefore request help. If there are other outputs you wish to see let me know and I'll provide. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.
