7.4 was better than 8.0

8.0 did come with a new kernel, ACPI options are slightly different... so it's possible that the hi/lo stuff isn't working for you anymore.

Are you booting in Hardware Workaround mode?

No, I boot as-is.

Booting as-is means you're booting to whatever kernel it decided to pick. Make sure you're booting to the normal kernel. It will remember your selection and always boot that forever more...

Unless you upgrade and change kernels... then things get a little goofy.

1GB of RAM is a little on the low side. It will run but it will probably chug like the lab box I have that auto updates to test new versions just to see if it completely crashes.

I agree, and just from my personal perspective and feel goods, I like at least 4GB of ram, a beefier cpu of at least 2.4 or 3.0 and 80GB-100GB drive (depending on what you are doing with this of course ).

cpu raw speed isn't really relevant when you go across platform and models....

a intel Pentium D 3Ghz will get eaten by a intel Core 2 Duo 2Ghz sort of thing.

Just removed my dir-655 and upgrade to router mode, so far so good. still looking for a trick to reset my reporting, I remove reports from rack and add back again, but again I have a problem with hosts tab.

As with hardware, I am completely happy with it! No problems or bottlenecks so far, only down side takes couple seconds for AV to scan downloads.

UPDATE:

found this

Report reset commands
*
First stop Untangle-vm:

/etc/init.d/untangle-vm stop

Clear the event log, WARNING: this will delete all reporting information and reports will take a few days to return to the expected result:

psql -U postgres uvm
drop schema events cascade;
\q

Restart the untangle-vm:

/etc/init.d/untangle-vm start

I will try this...

I don't like selling boxes that have less than 2gb of ram in them. 1gb really doesn't save you much money... and it gives you some head room. Not to mention dual channel kits with two 512mb modules are getting darn hard to find these days.
