some problems about AC86U,help >_<

[yesImrobat]

I use this firmware version:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/asuswrt-merlin/files/RT-AC86U/Release/RT-AC86U_384.8_2.zip/download

I cleaned NVRAM and did a factory default reset

I bought it two months ago , and it had worked good till five days ago.
(after I bought and got it , I update firmware to merlin immediately and cleaned NVRAM / did a factory reset(means it works good two month ) )

the problem is :
1. yesterday I couldn't connect AC86Uui on browser until I reboot it. but SSH always works good. why?
2. If I clicked some tag which on browser router UI,like firewall, it would lose connected for a while and got right later.
3. /tmp/syslog.log cant auto refresh or auto save,It always show FEB 10 (6 days ago) log .
4. the biggest trouble: since three days ago, my AC86u always lose connect suddenly(Internet inon show red cross),and reconnect at once .(all of wan client were affected)

my client ,and router to Optical Modem all use cat5e connector.
I had use other router instead of AC86U, and it works very well.

(sorry for my bad English I can't speak English)

It sounds like your factory reset has not worked for whatever reason.
I would try a full reset now that you have flashed the new firmware.
If you still have problems flash again followed by another reset.

It really sounds like you have some leftover dirty code that was not cleaned up.

thanks for your help.
But I did factory reset and cleaned NVRAM before I update firmware.
And I did it once again after upgrade completed.
I mean, I cant understand why is it abnormal suddenly after two months?
or I must do it every month to make it work normally?

Did you enter your custom settings manually, one bu one, after the reset or did you restore them from a backup?

An excellent guide can be found here:

Personally I would try this build without restoring any previous settings.
I have done this on my AC68U and everything is ok.

For troubleshooting I recommend that you do the same. Don't restore anything.

If you still have issues after that then it will require a deeper investigation.
