I'm getting bizarre disconnections from the internet. Which is odd, because I can still remote into the router just fine. Even when remote into the router, it says it can't do things like run a speed test because it does not have internet.

Anyone else dealing with internet disconnections on this firmware? I think I'm going to revert back a couple versions and see what happens.

I had this exact issue when I enabled IPv6 on my router with this new firmware.

I had disabled IPv6 while under the previous firmware when troubleshooting the memory leak issue (RT-AX55 Running Out of Memory), and had never re-enabled it. Thought maybe now that the memory leak was fixed, I could turn it back on but I had similar symptoms to what you described, would find the router would lock up, stop routing, and would sometimes even stop responding to pings.

Disabling IPv6 and rebooting the router resolved the internet connection issues. I had some difficulty rebooting the routing through the UI, so I ended up switching power off and back on at the router itself.

Hi! I'm getting the same kind of problem... I don't know if it is since the update but all my devices are getting deauth/reauth every like 5min...
I also get this between the deauth/reauth :

kernel: ^[[0;34m[NTC bpm] bpm_alloc_mult_buf_ex: Failed to allocate 128 buffers; buf_fail_cnt = 0^[[0m

Anyone has an idea ? I just reset the entire network configuration to start new...
Thank!
