The Tools/Sysinfo page always seems to work and gets updated.
The network map shows internet status, memory & CPU usage, but the traffic is blank.
The syslog page show a strange chunk of HTML
If I go to the Addons/scMerlin page, I immediately get logged out and asked to login again

Before it would work for a couple of days and eventually it would be in the funky state described where some stuff works and some (e.g. viewing logs) does not...
