Homehub 5 type B CWMP errors?

Been having some issues a week after a local outage that was apparently resolved last Friday. This Friday I had repeat drops on what is normally a rock solid line, but this time BT found no fault in the area. I was told the connection dropping was due to a configuration mismatch between the service and the router.

Digging into the logs I can see the below CWMP failures, but this seems to pre-date the issues. Does this represent the router trying and failing to update the config and if so, is this expected on something as old as the HH5? I can see the firmware is fairly old (v0.07.05.0A13-BT (Type B) Last updated 10/3/2016) but this could well be expected on the HH5. Perhaps it's failing for that reason? Any thoughts appreciated.

The log looks OK, if memory serves, but the HH5 is really obsolete. I would suspect it’s just its age telling.

Last f/ware update I had for an HH5b was May’21, (0.07.08.25060). By then I’d already replaced it as the router and reduced its function to the just a secondary wireless access point. At this stage it may be a security liability anyway. Be worth speaking to customer services about a new one. You’ll certainly need a new one if moved to Digital Voice, as the HH5 can’t do that.
