What is the “Watchdog”?

?

I rather fix the problem, not cure the symptoms! Once the Pi is running reliably, then turn on the watchdog if it is mission critical.

Sounds like a situation where a watchdog would help.

> Hi Folks - new member here. I've had several RPis over the past few years and gradually grew away from them, mostly due to unreliability. They seemed to go off into the weeds when left on for days at a time with no use. However I recently bought one of the new RPi 400 units for misc. tasks around my garage woodworking shop and possibly connection to an Icom IC-705. I have yet to connect it and power it up, but expect that'll happen later today or tomorrow.
