http crash here too, stopped responding to requests.
service restart_httpd fixed

Which page did you have up and for how long?

Had to reboot the RT-AC86U Media Bridge this morning, no connection to internet (via the other AC86). Both running beta2.

Found this in the log, might it be related?

8:24 would be when I turned on the computer connected to the bridge. After that point the interface changed to wl1.3, which seems odd.

Let me know if there's more detail that would be helpful.

Working great here no issues. 86U.

Aimesh routers that were connected on stock firmware remain connected to the primary router running Merlin firmware.

Not unsurprising and the best of both worlds if you need it but i suspect firmware updating for the stock routers is not going to work through the primary router and well require a hands on approach.

Login page > vpn > crash straight away

http crash here too

Same , after 6 days uptime

Settings sharing between nodes can also fail to work properly, especially the DHCP static reservations since I use a different format than stock firmware.

That page works fine for me. Which VPN server/clients do you have enabled?

I guess I was spoiled on my 68U. Did you try ssh service restart_httpd ?

No, i power cycle
I'm really close to put back my AC1900p , with which I've never had a problems

 

[dugaduga]

beta2, had to reboot 2-3 times in the last week, 100% cpu usage, is blocking incoming but not able to connect to the web. did not see any anomalies in the log, will keep my eyes peeled

 

[DroidST]

@dugaduga what asus model?

 

[Expell666]

I tried the Beta, both 1 and 2, on AC88U. Both of them keep both CPU cores running at 100%. If it is only me, I understand, and will await the release version.
And of course, great work, as you always do. RMerlin

 

[dugaduga]

AC66U B1 with AC68U firmware. 100% on both cores; happens at random intervals, once every day, or few days. Logs don't give away anything. Is there any way to detect what PID is utilizing cpu power %?

Use "top" over SSH.

 

[aka_nabla]

Hi, just installed last friday the Beta 2 in my RT-AC86U.

Everything from inside the LAN seems ok. But the web GUI access thu https over the wan is slow as hell (tried many browser combinations and 3 different ISPs).

 

[skeal]

Use "top" over SSH.

My AC68U has a similar issue. I administer it remotely. Every few days the webui CPU graph shows both cores between 85 and 95 percent. I used HTOP and found no process using more than 4% CPU, and the topper to this is that the CPU graph in HTOP showed both cores running no higher than 5%, and no rogue process hogging the both cores. Router becomes sluggish and has trouble with OVPN server. If I reboot, everything works as it should. Somebody tell me what is going on.

 

[john9527]

Are you using the MediaServer? If so do a search logging into the router....

find / -name minidlna.log

Examine the log files for any errors. The server can sometimes get 'stuck' trying to scan a bad or unrecognized file.

No I don't use a media server.

 

[dugaduga]

Me neither; I'll post my results the next time cpu use goes bonkers.

 

[skeal]

Same here next time I'll take screen shots.
