I'd also suggest you try this to try and clean things up.
Code:
opkg update
opkg remove --force-remove syslog-ngRouter is either crashing or wifi is cutting out
- Thread starter jorgsmash
- Start date
Manually delete all this junk?
Code:

Yes, delete all that stuff.
Code:
rm /opt/etc/syslog-ng.conf*
rm -fr /opt/etc/syslog-ng.dWhere is the regular built in syslog configured? I'm not gonna mess any of that up?

There are no config files for the built in syslog.
Hi,
I got quite the same situation as you have, I updated my AX88U from 388.1_0 to 388.2_2 a few days ago and after that it crashes 48 hours after a restart.
Behind my AX88U I have an RP-AX56 as AiMesh. After around 6 hours after a restart I lose the possibility to login into the router through explorer or app on mobile, I just got a Timeout.
To get the possibility to reconnect, I have to circle power the unit.

I am currently running the latest version of merlins firmware on my RT-AX68U and RT-AC86U operating in a wired mesh setup. I was getting a single disconnect once a day where I had to log into the main router and reconnect the mesh node. Fixing this issue required me to disable STP which isn't a big deal at all for most home networks. Please note that when I was running stock firmware on both routers, I did not see my mesh node disconnect, let alone disconnect once a day. Try disabling STP and see if that helps.
Would the steps we went through have broken the Skynet Stats in the GUI? It's not generating stats anymore and I tried the "Update Stats" button, but it didn't generate anything. I was able to generates some via the firewall menu via SSH.

run these commands and see if it changes anything. Do you see any blocks in the system log?
Code:
firewall settings syslog default
firewall settings syslog1 defaultOk, just ran those commands. Yes, I see lots of outbound blocks occurring and I'm trying to hunt to find out what processes are reaching out to them, and if they are truly malicious IPs which could indicate a potential compromise.

Oh, could be more scribe leftovers. Please check:
If either are found, remove them:
Also check the directory:
And also open your browser console with F12 and reload the Skynet GUI and look for errors.
Code:
ls -l /opt/bin/scribe
ls -l /opt/etc/syslog-ng.d/skynetIf either are found, remove them:
Code:
rm /opt/bin/scribe /opt/etc/syslog-ng.d/skynet
Code:
ls -laR /www/user/skynet
cat /www/user/skynet/stats.js

Some of what's in your logs, I was also experiencing with my AX88U in every 388 family release, some more than others. Tried all sorts of things, it even happen with stock ASUSWRT.
Curious, when it happens (like me right in the middle of streaming a movie, once), if you were to run a Speedtest whether the results would be off what you would normally see. I don't mean weighed against what you're provisioned for. But if you normal is 900+Mbps up and down and when this happens its significantly less than that as measured at the router. Workstations and Wifi aren't immediately impacted...
I dropped back to 386.8 on the AX88u and 386.7_2 on the AX86u's and have been rock solid, same config on 388 unstable. Since it also happened on ASUSWRT, I suspect it's got 0 to do with Merlin...
