Hi RMerlin,Post the output from the following commands by running them from your router:
Code:nslookup dns.msftncsi.com nvram get dns_probe_host nvram get dns_probe_content
The output from this commands directly from the router:
Hi RMerlin,Post the output from the following commands by running them from your router:

think it has somthing todo with the call to dns.msftncsi.com (NSCI),I have tried to reboot and It's still there.
I don't want to reset too many settings to restore.
Those are non-standard values, and that test will break very easily because www.google.com can return different IP addresses based on the DNS server you use for your queries, or the region you are located in.
nvram set dns_probe_content="131.107.255.255 112.4.20.71 fd3e:4f5a:5b81::1"
nvram set dns_probe_host="dns.msftncsi.com"

Thanks Merlin. I’ve disabled pixelserv-tls via the Diversion WebUI and that seems to have done the trick. Hope Asus/Trend fix at some point, so I can re-enable for Diversion.Known issue generally caused by pixelserv-tls (or any other addon that adds a custom network interface), which causes the TrendMicro dcd daemon to crash. Nothing I can do about it, you will have to uninstall pixelserv-tls.
having arround 2.9 on first cpuAfter 7 hours running this FW version, everything seems working OK.
Just only one curiosity is that the average CPU used is now around 2.8% for all 1, 5 and 15 minutes average, when it was before around 1.9% consistently (I have checked it many times in this 7 hours period, without having any specific high load from any LAN user).
Is it possible that this FW is more CPU "hungry" than the ones before?
The banner shows the firmware build date.Yes, I ran it just a few seconds ago before posting it.
It is weird ... I didn't notice it. But it seems something about the Merlin Firmware.
I repeated the commands and I took a bigger picture. And the time from the login is Sun Jan 2

I have just updated my AX86U's (router and node) and no problems with dhcp reservations yet.I did read it, my understanding, from reading it was, as long as I do not revert it will cause no issues, I just wanted this clarifying.
Sorry, I mean the data from the tools page ...having arround 2.9 on first cpu
Thanks @RMerlin.Those are non-standard values, and that test will break very easily because www.google.com can return different IP addresses based on the DNS server you use for your queries, or the region you are located in.
Replace these with the proper default values:
Code:nvram set dns_probe_content="131.107.255.255 112.4.20.71 fd3e:4f5a:5b81::1" nvram set dns_probe_host="dns.msftncsi.com" nvram commit
Perfect, all i need to know, I think I have 47 lol. Thank you.I have just updated my AX86U's (router and node) and no problems with dhcp reservations yet.
I have like 15 preset and all are there so it seems to update properly to the new method.

Interestingly. On my AC86U . The dns_probe_content is * . I guess that means as long as the DNS could resolve it. It will report the internet as working.Replace these with the proper default values:
Code:nvram set dns_probe_content="131.107.255.255 112.4.20.71 fd3e:4f5a:5b81::1" nvram set dns_probe_host="dns.msftncsi.com" nvram commit
I can confirm the fixes also worked for me. They were the issue the whole time.Thanks @RMerlin.
Everything is working OK now.
The output points to dns.msftncsi.com with the different commands.

Many thanks. It seems the NVRAM values were the clue.
