Hi Hugo,

Thanks for your reply.

> - Is this also happening to the other CPU?

I can't say for sure because we have not used that CPU as much. I will 
keep an eye out for it.

> - Can you send the output of ifconfig -a before the issue and after it happens?

Yes, pasted below.

> - Was any board added to the cpu?

No.

Here's the console output:
