How to check the cpu temperature in the LTS Fork ?

[Nite01]

I have installed the latest LTS Fork firmware on my RT-AC66U.
In the administration\temperatures page I only see the radio temperatures, if I recall correctly in the past there used to be also the cpu temperature. Or am I mistaken ?

Thanks

This router doesn't have CPU temp probe, as far as I know. I have one MIPS AC66U and I've never seen CPU temp reported.

I had to take the back off first...

CPU temp is higher than heatsink temp. This is the main issue with AC86U routers - poor heat transfer. With heatsink at 60C the CPU may be at 90C.

What, the region specific AC86U ? Mine has no temp issues.

Every AC86U. This router won't survive Asus claimed 0-40C operating ambient temperature. Read more here:

Hello everybody With this release, temperature of my RT-AC86U has risen again. It's around 96°c. and logs shows CPU turned off due to excessive heating. CPU Wait is ENABLED. Anyone else experiencing this? Thanks

I guess We are doomed with these standard temps.

Some are not as lucky as you. Read the entire thread. This router has other common issues too.
