Core 1 staying maxed out at 100%?

[AppleBag]

Hey all

I'm currently on version 384.6, with a ASUS RT-AC68U.

I just noticed that core 1 is staying maxed at 100% and I'm not sure what's causing it? I've looked through all the tabs but nothing is glaring back at me as to what it might be, and not exactly sure where I should be looking to pinpoint the exact cause?

Addition: Sometimes, like right now for example, navigating between router admin pages becomes painfully slow, and even completely unresponsive, just showing the 'throbber' on the tab as a 'working' indicator. I'm kind of guessing they might be related? Note that this is directly accessing it via 192.168.0.1.

Can anyone help?

Thanks!

make a power cycle, if its still there factory reset and manually setup.

DOH!

A reboot of the router seems to have done the trick. I ALWAYS reboot as the first Troubleshooting test but I guess this time I didn't because as I was trying to add ports I was power cycling after each time I added one.

Anyway, at least so far everything seems back to normal. Thanks!
