That is indeed an interesting alternative as the BB Diagnostic appears to use a different threshold to determine if the SH needs rebooting. Previously I assumed that forcing an activation "hit/reboot" would be identical to BB Diagnostic approach but when I tested "Activation" it not only rebooted my SH2 immediately (after it was manually rebooted 6hrs previously) but it also threw two errors (effectively saying it hadn't rebooted properly "error 96") despite having full connectivity after the attempt! Perhaps one might need to even try both methods?
