Will do and no probs, I really appreciate the effort you put in to maintaining this firmware for all of us and for all the assistance you've given me!

I've spotted some different entries in the log:

Code: 
dnsmasq-dhcp[16240]: failed to write /var/lib/misc/dnsmasq.leases: No space left on device

Full Log: https://pastebin.com/wi10duUd

This would have been occurring between when I pasted the last log, but before you'd given me further instructions on next steps. Sorry I don't have the full log. I guess it could just be further deterioration?, but thought I'd share just in case. Sadly I rebooted since then when you suggested the additional steps.

Thanks for hanging in there....sorry I'm having trouble getting my arms around this one.
Also, just for completeness, if it hangs again, also get a 'df' output.

Had another occurrence... however didn't spot when it happened so sadly the log might not be super useful: https://pastebin.com/uMXrNPxH

Log: https://pastebin.com/ex6R1QBv
 
Needed to reboot... weird thing post reboot (probably some reasonable explanation)... there's a gap in the log output between Aug 8 (when the watchdog last died) and Aug 12 (today)... i.e. it stops logging when the watchdog dies? (although this then does not show the missing log data I noted was mussing back on Tuesdays post - so that might now be helpful!)

log: https://pastebin.com/RgD1kuC7
 
Posted a 50DA development build...
- Prevents a potential conflict when trying to recover from httpd fails
- Reverts a Merlin backport which added an additional CONNTRACK option

I still have no idea what could have changed to cause AC66 problems, so these are shots in the dark.

This would seem to indicate multiple processes are dying. I hate to come back to it, but has anyone actually tried swapping out the power supply?

All I can tell you regarding this, is that I tried 49E4 and I had the router rebooting randomly. I then reverted to 46E9 and I currently have an uptime of 29 days without any problem.
So I think its unlikely an hardware issue.
 
@Nite01
Did you reformat jffs when moving 'up' in level.....the other possibility is still a corrupted jffs partition.
 
I’m also back on 46E9 with my N66U, 24+ days of uptime.
Prior to this, 48E7 and 49E4 would reboot after 5 to 7 days, with watchdog in the error logs.
I haven’t seen this code in 46E9 ever.

My AC66 unit acts as secondary AP role in my house, and I didn't realy notice the rebooting issue before. It's using 48E7 build and looks like the reboot issue was there as well. I just updated to 50DA firmware to see if it makes any difference.

I had the stock firmware before 49e4 (I used the asus utility to flash it, and did the reformat jffs as per instructions).
Then I just flashed 46e9 from the gui, and did the reformat again.

One note I can add, is that I always keep the 5ghz antenna disabled, as I only need the 2.4ghz. I disabled it in all the three cases. Could that cause a problem with >46e9 ?

Also note that I didn't try any in-between releases... I just picked 46e9 because people were reporting not having issues with it.

Updated to 50DA... will report back.

I don't have access to another compatible supply currently. If this update yields nothing, might try downgrading to see if 46e9 fixes it... either way that will show if 46e9 was the last good pre-break point or not.

I’ve gone through 46Ex, 47Ex, 48Ex and 49Ex.

No issues with 46 and 47. I’m currently running 47EB with no reboots, with all the same samba error messages in syslog that I’ve seen all along since restricting to SMBv2 only. With 48Ex, I started seeing the watchdog error messages and reboots every few days.
 
I downgraded to 48E2 look like no issues too, watchdog and wanduck are not increase memory usage in every minute, always stay in 2840 VSZ
 
Been running 50DA for about 37 hours now. It does not look promising. I ran this script every hour:
Bash: 
#/bin/sh
# cru a uptimelog "0 * * * * /mnt/RouterStor/Scripts/uptime-mem.sh"

LOG_DIR=/mnt/RouterStor/Scripts/uptime-mem
LOG_FILE1=$LOG_DIR/top.log

Been running 50DA for about 37 hours now. It does not look promising...

wanduck and watchdog's memory consumption has been steadily rising as before:

I'm observing the same thing on my N66U running 50DA.

The screen shots below were taken ~24 hours apart. The N66U is disconnected from everything other than one WiFi client.

I did not see this behaviour on 47EB.

111.png222.png333.png

At first it was only watchdog that was creeping up by 4kB every 30-60 seconds. After I had left it overnight I saw that wanduck was also now increasing and at a slightly faster rate. Comparing the screenshots above we can see that the processes that increased in size were wanduck, watchdog, usbled and rstats. I think I'd dismiss rstats as normal behaviour, but the other three processes are soft links to rc (which may or may not be relevant).

EDIT: Added a third screenshot after another 24 hours. wanduck, watchdog, usbled and rstats are still the only processes that are steadily increasing in size.

Last evening my AC66U with 50DA rebooted again after four days of uptime.
Firts log error was this.
Aug 19 19:49:32 watchdog02: no watchdog, restarting
After which all daemons stopped and router rebooted.
 
@john9527 Pardon me for asking, which Linux kernel version is the latest release built on? I couldn't find any info in the changelogs or readme's in the download folder on one drive.
