Hello, my internet dropped for maybe 30 seconds (wifi, lan, all of it "paused") and then came back up on it's own. Weird because usually when this happens I need to reboot both my routers. Anyways, I got this line on the network log that I've never seen before, and google search + SNB search came up with nothing. Any ideas on what it is? Running stock/updated firmware for Asus RT-AX88U.

I think that's a fairly normal message at startup. It's something to do with Amazon Alexa support I believe.

If you are running the new ASUS RT-AX88U Firmware version 3.0.0.4.388.20499 firmware, look in VPN/VPN Fusion and you will see that the default connection is listed there. It looks like a "tunnel" but isn't. It is just the way Asus set up VPN Fusion. I have worked a bit with VPN Fusion and have set up a PPTP tunnel to a VPN provider and limited specific clients to that tunnel with the rest of the LAN clients using the default connection.
Therefore your "new" log message is normal (whatever normal is...)

I saw the same message on my ET-12. I got it to appear twice and both times was when I had just connected with the app. Perhaps it's the Asus app creating an SSH type tunnel?
