As a datapoint. Not seeing such a crash or NONACSD log entries or 5 GHz radio switching on an RT-AC68U 386.10 final running YazFi when running Site Survey. What the system log shows:Site survey crashes 5 ghz radio ac-68u

second in 2.6.0.As another data point on NVRAM usage on an RT-AC68U (wireless router mode) running final 386.10. Using just the YazDHCP and YazFi scripts, approx 19 reserved main LAN IP addresses, no USB devices attached. Running the two scripts/code for clearing certain NVRAM variables mentioned on page one (here) significantly reduces the NVRAM usage. Currently NVRAM usage is60674 / 65536 bytes

, my RT-AC68U has never used so little nvram.59504 / 65536 bytes
, I guess those empty entries were created again.I rarely reboot that RT-AC68U router and have only been running those two scripts/code after flashing new firmware. Guess if I do reboot for any reason other than firmware flashing I'd have to re-run those two scripts. No doubt some enterprising person could likely create some sort of boot script that could run those commands every time the router is rebooted or powered on.EDIT:
After a reboot it went back to59504 / 65536 bytes

Do you get full speed for wired devices into AC68?Upgraded from 386.9 on AC86U and two AC68U mesh nodes. Upgrade was event free. Almost 10 hours uptime with no issues found yet.
I'm not sure, when I diffed the changes made to defaults.c since the last two GPL merges, very few new nvrams seemed to be added. Therefore I suspect the increased usage came from values assigned to existing variables, or new temporary variables generated during runtime.Do we know what is taking the extra NVRAM in newer firmware? I remember AC68U and variants having about 10KB free NVRAM after clean boot.
No. DCO requires kernel 5.2 or newer, so no current Asus router can support it.Does this openvpn version have DCO? https://openvpn.net/blog/openvpn-data-channel-offload/
IMHO, I don't like that.I might have to get more radical in 386.11 and reduce the number of allowed OpenVPN clients to 2 for the RT-AC68U.
I think openvpn is more important than free nvram or you can store variable of nvram on jffs?Removing OpenVPN clients 3, 4 and 5 would recover 2700 bytes of nvram,

Lol! Those dang Alphabet-ers, now they've found ways of taking pics of inside my house from SPACE...never thought I'd need a force field to obscure what happens under my roof <smh>Yet Google Earth clearly shows you unresponsive.

The system log shows this:Check your system log, it will tell you what the problem is.
I cannot troubleshoot anything without that information. Most likely is you have a custom parameter that's no longer valid with OpenVPN 2.6. The system log will tell you what it is.
