My GX touch 50 keeps rebooting. I did post this on another thread as was told it was being investigated and then that thread was closed. Reposting and hoping it’s picked up again

GX Touch 50 keeps rebooting
Hello
@Chris John , does it reboot often? Does the Cerbo GX reboot or just the touch 50?
Thanks
Trevor
Well one question would be is this a hardware or a software problem. I guess if the power supply could be soft causing it to restart if the brightness of the display draws too much current. I would turn the brightness down and see if it makes any difference at all. (that may sound a but whacky but you have to start somewhere).
This thread?

Usual causes for Cerbo rebooting are either poor internet connection, or too many connected devices overloading it.
Poor internet connection reboots can be configured by you. Otherwise check for excessive connections by removing devices.
No it was another thread where one of the Victron guys said it was being investigated then closed the thread. it’s at the bottom of this thread

I’m experiencing a similar issue. My Cerbo GX, after two years of uninterrupted operation, started to constantly reboot about a month ago without any apparent reason. The following devices are connected to it: a GX Touch 50, BlueSolar Charger MPPT 150/70 rev2, and BlueSolar Charger MPPT 150/45. It is powered directly from the batteries, with daily fluctuations between 25.6V and 28.3V. It transmits data to the VRM Portal via a local Wifi network. I upgraded it to version 3.40, but this did not resolve the issue. What can I do?
I am experiencing the same issue:
My cerbo is connected directly to the 24V batteries of Victron. Once I connect the GX Touch 50 the cerbo is rebooting. All LEDs off, the orange starts, the green and than the blue. Sometimes is reboots 20x in a row, sometimes it rebootzs once a day. If I disconnect and connect the power supply to the Cerbo, the reboot is sometimes successful. But after a while (1 zo 8 hours) the reboot stzarts again.
Once I connect the USB power of the Touch 50 to an external power source, e.g. power bank it stops rebooting and works well. Noiw I have disconnected the USB of the Touch 50 since 5 Days - no reboot!
Could the USB port (of course the one next to the HDMI) be overloaded by the Touch GX?
I have connected to the Cerbo GX three MPPTs 75/15, the BMS and the GX touch 50. If I disconnect the MPPTs the rebooting continues. It only stops, when I disconncet the USB of the touch screen
