Just noticed today that our 500 has been up for 190 days on 2.8 MR10, we had periods before when we were lucky to get a week before it needed a reboot I am sincerely hoping 3.0 can be as stable. Shane.

    Just rebooted one of mine last month to update the OS. It was up for about 210 days on 2.8 Build 393. I used to have an original Model 50 that during the first days of Netsky I had to reboot twice a day.

    280 days before I booted them. But the boot wasn' t needed but I needed to see what happened when I did since I had never tried it.

    Our pair of 3600s has been up since we installed them. The only oputages have been planned, scheduled, or power related. Haven' t had a single failure. They were installed approximately 9 months. Pretty impressive especially considering the complexity, number of connecctions, and the size of our network.

    Just under 60 days. The web filtering started to get flaky, so I loaded in build 405 over build 403 and rebooted, and everyone' s happy again. Let' s restart the clock!

    As this post is being updated The 500 we had we kept up for over a year on 2.8, we then installed 3.0. That unit has now gone to firewall heaven as it died about 3 weeks ago, we got it replaced with a 500A for free, so that' s nice Shane

    I had a 2.8 b? running 364 days when I upgraded it to 3.0 b319. I didn' t want to do the upgrade just because it was up so long.
