ASUS RT-AX88U - System Log messages, what does it mean and how to fix it ?

[manol68]

Hi. There are two different system log messages that are bothering me:

Mar 18 11:29:41 kernel: blog_death_by_timeout: bad timeout value=18446744073709541616, extra_jiffies=30000, idle_jiffies=40000
Mar 18 11:29:54 kernel: blog_death_by_timeout: bad timeout value=18446744073709541616, extra_jiffies=30000, idle_jiffies=40000
Mar 18 11:29:55 kernel: blog_death_by_timeout: bad timeout value=18446744073709541616, extra_jiffies=30000, idle_jiffies=40000
Mar 18 11:30:12 kernel: blog_death_by_timeout: bad timeout value=18446744073709541616, extra_jiffies=30000, idle_jiffies=40000
Mar 18 11:30:13 kernel: blog_death_by_timeout: bad timeout value=18446744073709541616, extra_jiffies=30000, idle_jiffies=40000

This happens mostly when downloading at high speeds. My internet connection speed is 1Gb/s.
My connection is stable, and these messages are appearing without any disconnections.
What exactly does it mean and how to fix it ?

Second log messages are for one particular wifi device which is constantly connecting and disconnecting:

Mar 18 11:34:32 WLCEVENTD: Disassoc xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
Mar 18 11:34:36 WLCEVENTD: Assoc xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

This is satellite decoder tv device (chip: Sagemcom Broadband SAS).
It is able to connet to both 2.4 GHZ and 5 GHZ, and signal / range is not an issue here.
Here are my wifi settings:





Anything that i can do or change to fix this issue ?
It happens regardless of the firmware that i am using (current one is 384.10_beta1)
Thanks in advance for any help !

For the second issue, associate/disassociate, try disabling the UPnP feature on your router.

I get the same thing all of the time and UPnP is disabled on my Router.

I also get the blog_death_by_timeout messages all of the time too.

I don't know if it will help for these issues, but I would turn off Airtime Fairness and Universal Beamforming.

Smart Connect is probably not helping either.

This was fixed with 384.10 firmware and no longer appears in system log.

This is satellite decoder tv device (chip: Sagemcom Broadband SAS).
It is able to connet to both 2.4 GHZ and 5 GHZ, and signal / range is not an issue here.

This was fixed by the most unlikely setting... "Hide SSID" set to enabled on 2.4 GHz. Nothing else helped.
Device is connected to 5 GHz network where "Hide SSID" setting is set to disabled.
Smart Connect of course disabled.
