Asus RT-AX86U error: acs_start eth7 cannot select chanspec with the wrong info

FYI, I've been seeing the same problem. I posted my details and logs in this thread https://www.snbforums.com/threads/w...s-reboot-acsd-start-up-at-exactly-11pm.90759/

Same as others: Aimesh AX86U with AC86U as the aimesh node. I use fixed channels, live with many surrounding houses with total pollution of the space and Auto never, ever works correctly. Every time I reboot acsd is not running, but it appears to start up on its own at 11pm every 4th day, just after disk_monitor in the logs. I can't find what scheduled event is causing this, as it's not in the cron. (logs and other details in the thread above)
 
I solved this problem by changing my router to an AX89X. The AX86U and AX86S both had the issue. The AX89X doesn't, I'm guessing because it uses a Qualcomm chip, not Broadcom. The wireless log looks different on the AX89X, the firmware is probably somewhat different.

However, I now want to upgrade to the BE86U. I'm afraid it's gonna have the issue given it's a Broadcom chip and generally the same product line as the AX86S/U/Pro, with probably the same firmware... So I wanted to ask if anyone with the BE86U has experienced this issue...
 
I have an AX86U with firmware version: Version 3.0.0.4.388_24339 on it (latest version on the support site). I don't have any AIMesh nodes, and before I changed routers, I wasn't having any random disconnects, so I had no reason to look at logs. Should I fire it up at some point as the main router to see if I get the error, or since I only use it as a stand alone router with no nodes, is mine exempt from the situation ?

PS, I have it configured with manual channel selection on both bands:
Channel 36 for 5Ghz with 160Mhz enabled, and DFS disabled.
Channel 6 for 2.4Ghz.
