RT-AC68W Slow to power up

binarymelon

New Around Here
I'm just wondering if there's any known issues where the device could be extremely slow to start up. When the power goes out or my device is powered off it doesn't seem to start up immediately (no lights). It will occasionally take 5 minutes or more (I'll usually walk away from it and it will turn on at some point). I have noticed some errors with jffs in the logs and also some incorrect dates on log messages. Just wondering if anyone has experienced similar issues.

Something running on your LAN seems to be broken, constantly flooding the router's UPNP service. Try disabling anything that uses UPNP to track down the root cause.
 
Sorry, I should have trimmed the log down. Those messages are pretty old. I'm not terribly concerned with that. It doesn't seem to be an issue anymore does it? I think that's when I originally installed the firmware. The PS4's networking is pretty janky, it probably just didn't like not having an internet connection. I noticed the issue because we've been having power issues in the area recently. Here's the relevant part of the logs.

looks like bad flash drive...

Do a reset/format and see where that takes you...
 
Looks like one of your 'power issues' either corrupted or damaged your flash memory.
Code:

I would do the following if it were mine.....
Reload the code using the ASUS Firmware restoration tool
Perform a factory reset
Reformat JFFS
Reconfigure and restore/recreate anything you had on jffs
