I'm using the latest non-beta Merlin FW on my RT-AC68U, with both Adaptive QoS and AiProtection activated. Everything seems fine for all devices (mix of PCs, Chromecast, smart Blu-Ray player, various phones, etc.) and coverage throughout our fairly large house is great. The Asus connects via PPPoE through a Bell Sagemcom modem/router in a passthrough mode.
However, there is one oddball problem with our Gigaset C610A-IP phone system, which is on a wired connection to the router. Twice now in the past couple of days I've noticed that all SIP registrations set up in the Gigaset base station are offline, showing "registration failed" as the only error message. Surprisingly, rebooting the phone and/or power cycling it do not seem to trigger successful registration, hence no phone service. The only thing that worked to bring back the phones was rebooting the Asus router.
For now, I've bypassed the Asus router for the phone system by plugging the Gigaset base station directly into the Sagemcom router. As soon as this connection is made, the phones immediately register successfully and stay that way. Although this works, it of course also bypasses the QoS system in the Asus router, which I wanted to use to give priority to VoIP traffic.
Any thought on the strange symptoms of the Gigaset base station -- dropping all SIP registrations and not reconnecting until the router is rebooted?
