    Constant Log Spam "rc_service: watchdog 247:notify_rc start_cfgsync" on RT-AC68U

    Constant Log Spam "rc_service: watchdog 247:notify_rc start_cfgsync" on RT-AC68U

    It's an odd problem that hits some users with no clear solution I can see. An Asus tech said it was fixed but it comes back from time to time: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/rt-ac86u-dual-band-ac2900-rc_service-watchdog-804-notify_rc-start_cfgsync.46274/#post-401757 . So now you know what...

    Warning message on RT-AC86u running Merlin 384.10_2

    according to Google it's memory allocation: https://elinux.org/Tims_Notes_on_ARM_memory_allocation This thread says it's 'Trend Micro AiProtection provided in the firmware': https://www.snbforums.com/threads/strange-events-in-rt-ac86u-system-log.55851/ And this one says it has not been fixed...

    [Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.7 is now available

    it answers the "what" and doesn't really answer the "why" (Asus) ... and here is one from 5 yrs ago: so essentially, in a nutshell, we have an old kernel

    [Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.7 is now available

    upgraded from 384.6, dirty flash, over wireless, while drinking hot coffee. I live on the wild side. absolutely no problems at all, but I use minimalist ntwk settings, so YMMV. Thank you Merlin

    Random kernel reboot message popped up overnight

    I don't know the answer, someone more knowledgeable will be here soon but there are clues about flash and/or virtual memory having problems: "jbd2" is a kernel thread that updates the filesystem journal, according to Google. "Unable to handle kernel paging request" could be a memory address...

    [Beta] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.7 Beta is now available

    you should see what channel you are on in relation to this message. probably (guessing) means you are near (or not near) radar and 2.59 million milliseconds is around 40 minutes remaining (or counting up, not sure) for the next check. so probably a 5 or 10 minute (or hourly) check maybe. The...

    [Release 384/NG] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.5 is now available

    @eac, couple thoughts because that is odd: 1. what @Grisu said above, and if that doesn't work, remove power, wait, (not power cycle with the software button), try again 2. the progress bar is an estimate and maybe it's not finished 3. there is a way to do it ssh command-line but should be a...

    AC-68U with Merlin 380.69 slow upload

    I would establish first: Is your ISP cable, wireless, dsl, satellite? If cable, check/compare your signal log: http://www.dslreports.com/faq/16085 in case of problem or routine maintenance. Second, are you performing a factory reset after each upgrade...

    RT-AC87U Terrible RSSI compared to RT-AC66U

    I would guess 384.5 is the issue then. all should be on 380.70, in my opinion. I doubt the hardware is bad.

    RT-AC87U Terrible RSSI compared to RT-AC66U

    it's Broadcom vs Quantenna, so different low level closed-source drivers in the mix now: https://wikidevi.com/wiki/ASUS_RT-AC66U https://wikidevi.com/wiki/ASUS_RT-AC87U all things being equal (same firmware, exact same settings, height off the floor, exact same location, same noise floor...

    What is best router in 2018?

    sidenote stream of consciousness but semi-related: do you think there is some inherent reason they don't fight over chips to speed up encryption/decryption (faster than the current champion) ? I assume it's cost - but - as we know people will pay top dollar regardless of cost when you slap...

    language issue with ASUs rt-ac 68u

    more info is always helpful. I had to Google sr 102. just a reminder that this is a world-wide forum and some of us will not know what in the world you are talking about - I assume it's this below but still not sure: Also, what firmware you're using, and what exactly happened right up until...

    VPNFilter Malware

    I'm thinking (and maybe I'm wrong) you could ssh into your router and list its contents grouped by last modified date. Of course you would have to establish a baseline (a re-install maybe?) and understand Linux + (your_particular_routerOS) and whether or not those items are supposed to be...

    AC88U - Update to 384.5 ??

    It used to be you could downgrade but the problem is now (new generation firmware) you can't put it back (not easily) if it doesn't work out for you. Asus is enforcing this decision and will be closing the current loopholes in the future. This is the first time I am wary of upgrading as there...

    Is phone or router at fault?

    I saw a couple posts that said to try lower channels on 5GHz. I think it was about a quirk with the current wireless driver this firmware is based on, but I can't remember where I saw it mentioned. Try the release thread ...
