Kind of like how TP-Link hardcoded a bunch of their stuff to a JP server. Only just discovered this when I found the whole Asus issue. They didn't feel the need to patch the older revision of the device I had, so I bought a newer version.
I haven't seen any constant pings in the last 12 hours since changing to localhost - hopefully that means it fixes things. Still not a good solution for everyone else with the issue though.
Really seems AP mode should completely disable this.
Went ahead and changed it and will see if that creates new logs or maybe it won't leave the system. I already blocked access to the msftncsi, but would rather just keep things clean by having nothing. Seems like a bit of an oversight on Asus's part, considering AP mode doesn't need an internet...
Already seems set that way (might be default for AP mode?)
wandog_delay=0
wandog_enable=0
wandog_fb_count=4
wandog_fb_restart=0
wandog_interval=3
wandog_maxfail=2
wandog_target=
Well, remember this is an AP, so it doesn't host internet and the wan port is set to a lan port. If this still pings itself every minute that really isn't much better. I'm trying to get rid of all the extra entries it is making in technitium, which handles the dns.
Basically title. Once upon a time you could just remove the settings in nvram and it would stop, but that doesn't seem to work anymore.
dns_probe=0
dns_probe_content=*
dns_probe_host=
dns_probe_timeout=1
Nothing changes. My router is even in AP mode and this still happens. Over 40k+...
Can you break that down a little more? I know previously you could just "" the dns probe address, but that doesn't work anymore. I'm even in AP mode and it still sends them.
I just flashed this on an AX88U and almost everything works fine. Only problem, I cannot change the options at the bottom of the Administration - Tweaks - Advanced Tweaks and Hacks section. After applying it will just sit there saying "Applying Settings..." infinitely.
As an aside, wasn't...
