    AC68U 100% cpu

    understood, i hadn't realized asus had not put out more security patches since august, and that merlin had caught up with the december security update so quickly, thanks :cool: i'll just have to set aside extra time on the off chance i'll have to rebuild all over again.

    [Release] Asuswrt-Merlin 384.9 is now available

    if the asus code since 384.9.x has this reporting issue, then why bother updating past 384.8_2 ? i mean everything else i use on my ac3100 seems to be working fine.

    CPU 100% every few days

    despite being a data hoarder, i keep all my partitions at 2tb and try to folder nest any file collection over 250 entries. because i know from experience even the latest soft versions can struggle dealing with what should be legacy limitations.
