[arm-allstar] Pi lockup

[DAVID HARESNAPE]

We have a node here in the Kansas City area doing the same thing.  It is located on top of a business building, and it has done this twice so far. Internet was lost last Saturday and just came back today around midday. The repeater was down during this time, but came back up when the ISP was restored. We are also using the latest versions, a Pi3, and a DMK URI.  I have not been able to duplicate this with any of our other nodes.  Have not had this problem before, after several years of using Allstar Asterisk.

If anyone has any ideas on what could be causing this, suggestions appreciated.  Unfortunately, I do not know who the ISP is, nor do we have any control over it, as it is provided for us by someone else.

I have this same problem but I just figured that's the way it was. For me
it not a big issue. It happens anytime I lose internet for a long period of
time. This happens every time I'm driving to work. My commute is 1 1/4 hr.
drive and half of that time I'm in a dead area with not cellphone service.
I'm unable to control my node in any way. Don't even get a connect
beep. The only thing I can do is log onto Supermon and control it. Most of
this time once I get back into cell range everything starts working.
Sometime It doesn't and I have to restart Asterisk. I have duplicated this
problem at home by disconnecting my internet and waiting. I haven't made
note on how long. I hope this information helps.
