So after doing some investigation regarding WAN drops that I have been getting multiple times a day. I have since disabled Traffic Analysis on the firmware and alas my WAN drops seem to be cured as I am 72 hours in with no issues and it was a huge problem before. I have commented in another thread about this but I am curious, why would traffic analysis cause this ? Is this a bug in the Merlin firmware that can be fixed ?
I bought this query here as it seems appropriate. Would be great if Merlin could chime in on this one.
P.S I am using an AC88U.
Related back to our discussion on the other thread - did you ever try having Traffic Analysis enabled but the AI protection stuff disabled? I realize that is not feature wise what you want - since you said you really didn't care about the traffic analysis feature - but I seem to recall in reading some of the threads on this forum that the combination of AI and Traffic Analysis was causing problems for some. So curious if it is more the combination of these features vs just the traffic analysis feature.
As you probably recall from my previous replies on this subject - I DO have traffic analysis enabled but not AI protection. And until I changed from dual back to single WAN - I was having the DHCP disconnect issues. Since changing back to single WAN I have not had any issue. Trying to figure out what combination of things is at the heart of this issue...
