Then it comes down to bash hashboards or bad power supply. You'd have to look into log to see the cause.

Difficulty being too low can trigger reboots probably due to overload.
Another issue i heard which could trigger reboots is many HW errors in a short amount of time.
And of course temperature over 80C triggers a stop/reboot.
My own L3+ don't have any issues.

Mine would reset every hour when connected to multipool. Prohashing seems to be much more stable, and the L3+ only resets one every 1-2 days.

Nothing to do with power supply, i have 2 miners running on original Antminers PSU, some on 1500w EVGA some on 1200w Corsair all still randomly reboot, no overheating issues either.

my guess it's the bug in the software

Ah interesting to see I'm not the only one. I figured it was due to something with the pool or coin it was mining perhaps. It didn't seem to do it the day I tested on litecoinpool.org (only one day though).

I've tested with 1300Watt Antec Platinum and now I'm running the APW3+ on 208v. I don't think there's anything wrong with your PSU ;)

Would it be better to set difficulty to auto?

There is a difference between rebooting and the miner performing a mining restart.

The only way to tell if your miner is rebooting itself is to ssh into it and check the system uptime.

You can't go off of the miner status page as to whether or not its rebooting itself because any time the miner does a mining restart, it will reset it's miner status.
