What amperage is your power supply?
Yes that was going to my question. What amperage will the power supply
deliver? While it's 22v, that doesn't mean it's getting enough amps,
just getting enough volts.
W = V * A
In my case, I had over looked my 'A'mps thinking that my V was enough.
I don't think my unit was rebooting, I was just dropping ethernet ports
when I plugged another device in.
To add to my problem, the issue only started when I plugged the power
supply in to my UPS. The unit would function ok when it was on 'mains'
power.
When I got the unit back to base, I discovered that the power supply was
only 300ma, which was ~2.6w - 1 w to low to power the unit.
I replaced my power supply with a 1amp/12volt unit and haven't had a
problem with it since.
So yes, I don't know if mine is the same problem at all... but hopefully
the comments above might shed some thought to help :) :) :)

Voltage on this unit is showing 22V under the health tab. So I don't
think that is the issue. With your issue, was the unit rebooting? Mine
shows months of uptime. It's just the Ethernet ports that drop.
