Hey everyone.
I wanted to share something I noticed today regarding the RT-AX86U router.
It caught my attention that AdGuard wasn't running, so I decided to investigate further. Upon checking the router, I discovered that Entware was not mounted. To my surprise, the USB drive itself was not mounted either, seemingly out of nowhere.
The syslog file revealed a series of error lines related to this issue.
Upon attempting to check the drive, I discovered that it had become read-only for some unknown reason. I'm puzzled about what might have caused this sudden change.
AMTM's disk check log shows that yesterday it was fine. Today, not anymore.
Do any of you have any ideas or suggestions on how to resolve this situation?
Thank you in advance for your help.
