Yeah, there's a relationship between the date getting all wonky and the login failing. If I'm already logged in on the web and SSH, I can see that the processor cores are pegging at/near 100%. Eventually the router will self-reboot. I'm grabbing as much logging as I can during the day while I...

Interesting. Other things I have that might be different is I have syslogging on (to a local machine), SNMP enabled (get only), a handful of ports open for incoming, 31 "manual IP" settings, and AIMesh with two nodes. This morning CPU cores are back to low usage, temp just under 60. It appears...

The other thing I'm noticing is on the System Status page Core 2 & Core 4 are pretty much pegged at 100% almost all the time now, and Core 1 & Core 3 bumping between 50% and 100%. And that's with the router not really doing anything. I have no "extra" options enabled, just firewall rules. CPU...

Okay, yeah, I can see that now. I SSH'ed in and just checked date every now and then, and it changed from correct to Wed May 8 04:54:27 EDT 1918. I'd imagine it'll try to correct that via ntp, fail, and self-reboot at some point soon. My network settings aren't particularly elaborate. Wifi 6 &...

Downgraded to 102.4, factory reset and painstaking reapplication of my basic settings. Still reboots and the syslog still shows bogus timestamps. Unfortunately, since syslog doesn't include the year, I can't tell if your theory about that is correct. But I surmise it's not the broadcom driver...

It is indeed the BE92U. And I did a complete factory reset, staying at 102.6, and it's still rebooting randomly. Unfortunately, a script that reboots the router isn't all that much better than it self-rebooting. I think I'll have to go back to 102.4 (102.5 gave random WiFi problems, but not...

Since a dirty upgrade from 102.5 to 102.6, I've had multiple spontaneous router reboots. I grabbed a log and I'm seeing unusual crond behavior: Dec 31 19:00:36 kernel: skb_free_task created successfully with start budget 32, period 10ms Dec 31 19:00:36 kernel: bcm_tcp_task created successfully...

I have the BE92 still on 3006.102.5. When I first click on "Network Map", I see the "System Status" screen as you show. If I click on the Clients box, the screen changes to show "Client Status", with the Online, Wired & Wireless tabs. I don't recall seeing it behave any other way.

In the end I did a soft reboot and the old password magically started working again. Weird, but all's well in the end.

No, because the new rules only kick in if I want to change the password, which I don't. No settings have been changed at all in a very long time. Plus, I'd have thought the SSH and GUI username/password combo would be the same. Hence the concern. However, if it's confirmed that the firmware...

BE92U running 3006.102.5 problem-free so far. But at some point this morning I lost all connection. That in itself isn't super-unusual because my wireless internet can be a bit spotty at times. It *appears* the router self-rebooted, but I can't be sure. A minute later, and all is back up and...

Yes, I should add that's true. It's just the Connections page that doesn't notice (I have the refresh there set at 5 seconds). *That* page will not reflect the missing device & connections for 10 minutes. What's amusing is if I watch, it actually will add and remove connections to/from the list...

Yeah, there is the new Connections page, which is what I'm referring to. But if you say the 10-minute timeout is normal, then good enough for me. I never noticed it before, but with the new router and Merlin updates I've been poking at stuff and "noticing" things a bit more. :-)

Home Assistant's integration looks at the list of connected devices parsing by name. Ignore the HA part and tweak the question to: Why does the Connections on the router list take 10 minutes to notice that a WiFi device is no longer there? Once that's solved, the rest will fall into place.

I'm not 100% certain if this is Merlin-specific, but I'm only seeing this weirdness with 3006.102.5b3 and it seems new to me. Background: I run Home Assistant, with one of the automation triggers being whether family members are home or not. That's triggered by an interface to AsusWRT that...
