    USB drive unmounts every few months, I/O error, part table locked

    Thanks guys, corroboration is as important as a cure.

    USB drive unmounts every few months, I/O error, part table locked

    Both ports are USB 3.0 on the RT-AX86U, so, yes. I'm using what are apparently crappy old thumb drives however, which could certainly account for the unreliability. I do have UHS micro SD cards here, it may be worth trying one of those in the interim while I pull together an external SSD.

    USB drive unmounts every few months, I/O error, part table locked

    I've done a mix of implementations, from a complete rebuild and reinstall of the router software to a restore of JFFS from a backup and a clone of the "dead" USB drive. I have reformatted JFFS although it's a stretch to claim I rebooted 3X before setting up the new USB. I've definitely reset...

    USB drive unmounts every few months, I/O error, part table locked

    ASUS RT-AX86U Running Merlin 386.5 Every few months my USB drive unmounts, which kills my swap file and takes out Diversion and Skynet, among other things. I've used a few different manufacturer's drives, including Kingston, Memorex, generic, USB2.0, USB3.0, etc. I format the drive in AMTM...

    DDNS Update Rate?

    For sure a DNS problem. I can't get to ns1.asuscomm.com from a DOS box or from PuTTY. What I don't get is why that's my only problem. I'm using OpenDNS and everything else seems to be configured properly, it's just this one piece that isn't working. When I revert back to my ISP's DNS on the WAN...

    DDNS Update Rate?

    Thanks for the responses. Firstly, yes, the WAN address of the router is the public address on the Verizon network and not behind any private range addresses. The Log report points to a problem for sure but googling it doesn't get me too far. One thing that strikes a chord is perhaps a...

    DDNS Update Rate?

    I have a similar problem. A few weeks ago Verizon rolled my IP to a new one and for almost a month I haven't been able to get my DDNS to update. From outside the network a tracert still shows the old IP. Running the ASUS lookup at http://iplookup.asus.com/nslookup.php reports my old IP as well...

    kernel: [BLOCKED - INBOUND]

    Do you think removing Skynet from the picture would prevent the router from overloading and dropping connections? I guess it's pretty easy to find out... I don't care about the log files but having my office VPN drop every few hours as the router goes into convulsions is annoying at best.

    kernel: [BLOCKED - INBOUND]

    Hate to hijack but have a related question. I get a ton of this traffic, the ZZZZs would represent my router's MAC and the XXXXs are my public IP, to the point that once or twice a day it cripples my AX86U. There are instances when I'll get 40-50 each second for a little while and the router...

    Wacatac in JFFS?

    I had some trouble with Diversion last night, poor performance, so I uninstalled it and uiDivStats, then reinstalled, along with the youtube ad blocker piece. Today I went to back up my JFFS partition from the ASUS GUI and Microsoft Security Essentials complained that it found Wacatac.C!ml in...
