If it were maintenance I'd like to disable it as it's been like this for 2 months :) I'm on AP mode on the latest firmware so no VPN usage. I get stutters with my low latency streaming everytime the cpu usage is pegged like that.

Every 3 minutes my AX56U CPU usage will spike to about 80% usage on all cores. These processes are 1487 1 admin S 5348 1.0 2 3.2 /usr/sbin/wlc_monitor 425 2 admin SWN 0 0.0 0 2.7 [jffs2_gcd_mtd9] The router is configured in access point mode. Any idea how to...

I tried various clients an iPhone 12 Pro (iOS), iPad Air 4 (iPadOS), Quest 2 VR Headset (Android) and a Macbook Pro 16" (MacOS).
