With or without photos? Never mind, you’re too shy...Well I've always been very interested in your router but was too shy to ask.. So please, tell me more about your router , all the information

Sorry to ask a New question - how to actually check the core hosts and the YazDHCP hosts?As @MDM has pointed out, dnsmasq is crashing after the list of hosts is loaded. Check your hosts file you created in dnsmasq. Check for any duplicate MAC address or incorrectly formatted MAC address. I've had this happen to me. It was a MAC address on a dhcp-host line that I mistyped.
Is anyone successfully using DNS over TLS with the latest version? I've switched back to legacy DNS because <50% of requests were making it to my DNS provider (their logs have missing requests) and I was having to refresh web pages again and again. Everything works fine on legacy DNS. Wondering what's causing this. I notice there's a change in the config since Control-D wrote their instructions here: https://kb.controld.com/tutorials/asus - you can't tell your router not to automatically connect anymore. Any tips or hints welcome.
For YazDHCP hosts:Sorry to ask a New question - how to actually check the core hosts and the YazDHCP hosts?
Using SSH or a program like WinSCP; review the following files in the /jffs/addons/YazDHCP.d/ directory to ensure there are no errors, particularly with MAC address entries. One other troubleshooting suggestion. Avoid using spaces or special characters for the Hostnames.YazDHCP adds 3 lines to dnsmasq.conf.add to configure DHCP reservations:
addn-hosts contains a list of IP address to hostname mappings, for DNS resolution of DHCP reserved clients dhcp-hostsfile contains a list of MAC address to IP address bindings, to reserve a DHCP IP address for a MAC address dhcp-optsfile contains a list of MAC address to DNS server address bindings, to provide the specified DNS server as a DHCP option for a MAC addressCode:addn-hosts=/jffs/addons/YazDHCP.d/.hostnames # YazDHCP_hostnames dhcp-hostsfile=/jffs/addons/YazDHCP.d/.staticlist # YazDHCP_staticlist dhcp-optsfile=/jffs/addons/YazDHCP.d/.optionslist # YazDHCP_optionslist
Try ASUS stock firmware? If it continues, report to ASUS from the router's GUI w/ log file.My RT-AX86U is still randomly rebooting with this new firmware. After suffering with it for over a year I decided to just do a factory reset and reconfigure everything, hoping that maybe a stray setting somewhere was causing it but it wasn't. Flashed this version, factory reset and manually configured SSID settings and DHCP for a few clients and it still randomly reboots and logs start writing to May 5 again. It's been happening since someone discovered that it was a kernel panic that caused the reboot here (about the time I got the router and flashed MerlinWRT) https://www.snbforums.com/threads/sporadic-gt-axe11000-reboots-due-to-kernel-panic.77173/
Any help with what I can even do now? Every 4-7 days it seems to just want to reboot itself, which is extremely troublesome when 3 of us are working from home all the time.
Are you using FlexQoS addon? If yes, have a look in this thread:My RT-AX86U is still randomly rebooting with this new firmware.

I did on my old config but I have not used it after a couple weeks. I just tried to uninstall it and it says it's not installed so unfortunately it is not caused by FlexQoS ): I don't even use any form of QoS and haven't for a long while. Do addons even survive a factory reset? I tried both Cake and Flex before, but I tried running the uninstall commands for both through SSH and both say they are not installed.Are you using FlexQoS addon? If yes, have a look in this thread:
FlexQoS - FlexQoS issues with 388.4 HND5.04 models
However, that router running 388.4 beta 2 with FlexQoS shown absolutely no reboot issues. Are the rules the same between the 2 devices? If so, we can start to assume it depends on the actual traffic/packets being processed that triggers the problem.www.snbforums.com
On my side I removed it and now it's far better. From random reboots every few hours to none.

No problems here either.No problems for me.

Yea I already full reset and the issue still occurs. I am now back on stock firmware and hopefully it doesn't happen anymore.Try this without ssh
Check this thread here > Merlin on ASUS ax86U Question post 9
Got the same router
Start fresh and clean.
Thanks to L&LD

I don't use either of them at all and haven't for months. I have factory reset and flashed latest firmware when they are available and the issue still occurs. Both QoS are not installed, and I do not even use any QoS at all right now. Right now I'm completely stock firmware and just waiting to see if the random reboots still happen.Rather than Flex and all that configuration, use CAKE QOS. Set it and forget it simple. I have the same router running merlin and stable for years.
Do you have anything exposed to the Internet?I don't use either of them at all and haven't for months.

All my devices are either phones or computers, no IOT devices and no public IP to access any of them. My ISP does not provide public IPs so local network CCTVs etc cannot be accessed from WAN. This kernel panic issue has been happening since Feb 2022 https://www.snbforums.com/threads/sporadic-gt-axe11000-reboots-due-to-kernel-panic.77173/Do you have anything exposed to the Internet?
Asuswrt-Merlin 388.4 is now available for Wifi 6 models.
Code:3004.388.4 (21-Aug-2023) - NOTE: In preparation for the new 3.0.0.6 codebase, the version string will now start with 3004 or 3006 to match with upstream. - NOTE: The RT-AX56U is no longer supported, as Asus has put it on End-of-Life status, and the previous Asuswrt-Merlin 388 releases for that model were all based on untested code. - NEW: Display channel utilisation for supported platforms on the Wireless Log page. - UPDATED: Merged GPL 388_23588. - UPDATED: curl to 8.1.2. - UPDATED: OpenVPN to 2.6.5. - UPDATED: openssl to 1.1.1u. - UPDATED: tor to 0.4.7.13. - CHANGED: FTP server will now only support strong ciphers in TLS mode. - FIXED: QOS Classification showing no Upload data on some WAN configurations. - FIXED: Radio temperature graphs weren't updating - FIXED: XT12 proximity pairing wasn't working (missing bluetooth firmware) - REMOVED: Ethernet port status from the Tools Sysinfo page (as this is redundant with Asus' own display now available on the networkmap page).
Downloads are here.
Changelog is here.
Did you perform a full reset install or a regular install? For some reason my RT-AX86U won't update, it just hangs
