    That's a kernel oops.
    Looks like there's a problem with loading the firmware file, or reading from it.

    What firmware do you use, and which version?
    You could try to flash a more recent version or reflash your firmware.

    I have tried newer versions but how you can read in my previous post, there is some problem with openvpn again. And as I already mentioned I am on the latest official release v5066 from the repository. I had already downloaded and reflashed fw a few times (also from your "Nightly" web storage), but it's very hard to analyse this problem because it's occurrence is very rare - once a month.

    I have tested a few more versions and I found that version 5097 is still working correctly with openvpn but 5100 not. Maybe changes in 5099 are the case?

    Could be, although I find the warning messages you get a bit weird.

    You should report your findings to lly.
    The forum thread: http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?18...rsion&p=260281 (I think lly watches it)

    or add an issue to the google code project: https://code.google.com/p/wl500g/issues/entry

    I mean, if you're sure it's not working after some revisions about there...

    I haven't used openvpn for a long time on my router, so I didn't notice anything.

    I found a reason of this weird problem - chipset overheating. I've mounted big heatsink with small cooler and everything seems to be OK.
    But openvpn in v5099 and newer is still the issue, router is restarting everytime some client connects.

    When I deactivated fastnat then connection became stable.

    Well yes, it should be, otherwise openvpn won't work.
