Looking for Feedback: RT-BE92U stability issues

[Skelomorph]

I suspect that there is a software issue which can cause the CPU to stall/crash. In many cases this results in the log reporting "CPU stall" and the RTC getting reverted to 1918. That specific issue seems to be almost resolved in 102_39848 - it was fully resolved for me at least, I believe one single user reported that it still happened at least once for him tho.

Unfortunate it appears to still be happening and still has not been permanently fixed.

Merlin. I wanted to check in to say I have since updated to the non beta 102_39061, running a few weeks or so now, and I have had zero stability issues with any of the bands. I still have MLO turned off everywhere. I did have it set to auto reboot daily and backed off to once weekly and it is still stable for me and my use which is about 30 devices, tv's, laptops, desktops with Wifi7 cards, phones, a couple dozen IoT devices. Everything is humming along happily. HW Ver 5.1 if that matters. Only one ethernet device connected to switch, a Rpi running Pihole and Unbound DNS.

I put my experience here:

The executive summary is that ASUS seems to have enabled STP on the WAN port with no way to turn it off. My ISP shuts off my port when they see that.

This was only the latest nuisance however. I have been an ASUS fan since the 90s; always preferred their motherboards.

But their firmware engineers seem to have lost it. I don't have time to be a beta tester, so I have moved on.
