[arm-allstar] URIx Power Down

[Doug Crompton]

Chris,

   When you say "losing power"  what do you mean? No LED's lit on URI?
Solid green?  The green should be flashing. I am not sure loss of internet
would have to do with the USB and power to the URI.  You are using item 15
- power cycle usb to restart it?

Long ago we use to have issues with the USB not resetting but that was
corrected. Power glitches or RF caused it to go dead. I have not seen or
heard of that issue since the SW fix several years ago.
