It seems to happen often, the ME Controller is not communicating with the rest of it. My only fix right now is to break and replace the controller.
AE's ME Controller constantly disconnecting from the rest of the system.

If you have any ME dark cables that are constantly adjusting state as a result of some level emitter, you will need to understand that any change in the ME system will reboot it. This also means any mid-processing (i.e. multi-stepped processing) will also be interrupted.
The words often and constantly do not mean much in this. What you need to investigate is... When does it happen? Does it happen at a server reboot? Happens when you leave the area and come back? When you order something to be crafted? Warped to another dimension and came back? Etc.. Make it easy for yourself and divide this problem in parts, try to see what action or lack of action is needed to make this happen. The more information you have, the easier it is for us to troubleshoot it and find a solution.
To share some experience.. And I bet you, your problem is the same as I will describe below.
I've investigated this issue a lot on a server and in the end it was always caused by a chunkloading issue. You probably say that's not the case here, but I urge you to check again. On every occasion I investigated this issue, the bases owner told me everything was in the range of the chunkloader.. Until we did find that one ME cable running one block outside the loaded chunks
You can indeed break the controller and put it back, often solves the problem. If not you can try to unload the entire base, wait 5 minutes (make sure a player is not loading the chunks by being nearby) in a remote location and return to the base. This has always fixed the problem for me. Long term fix is to find the part of your ME network that is not in range of the chunkloader.

I think the problem is crafting. But I'm not too sure. It crashes when I am using it and when I am not. I can craft a Compact Windmill without a crash but I can also craft a Lily Pad of Fertility and it will crash it. My only guess is power and I am increasing that. We have a lot of CPUs hooked up. It could be just too many actions to carryout with the power.
I get this all the time when I log back in (no chunkloaders at my base either). But some mods or blocks are causing chunks to not unload (when I log out) meaning some or part of my base is being chunkloaded without chunkloaders, I'd love to find out which mod/block is causing it as it's causing weirdness to occur throughout my base.
I had a similar problem recently. The controlled had plenty of power, had cables connected (both standard ME cable and EnderIOs ME conduit). The ME cable was visibly not connecting to the controller. Breaking and replacing the controller fixed it.
My solution was to connect the controller to the network through another AE device (in this case, a ME access terminal). I haven't had this issue occur since.

On my last Unleashed playthrough I would occasionally see this problem when teleporting back to my base (or coming through a nether portal). I'd come back and the ME controller would be disconnected from it's power cable and ME cable, as if the block was no longer accepting the connection to either.
Breaking it and replacing it fixed the problem as did relogging.
Haven't seen it on Monster yet though.
