If you haven't had any problems, there's no need to restart.  The problem I
have is that some modules on the card will simply stop responding.  For
example, the line connected to an FXO module will ring and ring, without it
ever noticing.  That's when a restart is necessary.  In my case, it seems to
happen after a couple of weeks of uptime, so I restart the card once a week
on Sunday morning.
