I see this (removed some cifres for privacy) constantly with this firmware version in the systemlog and have reported this to ASUS support some of weeks ago, but have had no response so far.
Tried to reboot several times, tried to reset router several times but it is still the same.
Anybody had any succes fixing this?

Same problem as all the others with this firmware (reseting to factory default didn't help).

I have the feeling that all the verbose logging that was activated in the last firmware causes the AImesh router to run out of resources (or too many IO's).
Making it slower and slower and slower.
In the end I need to reboot it every 2-3 days to make it fast again.
However I don't reboot it using the auto -reboot, because in 80% of the case the router doesn't come up again...I need to reset it using the power button at the back.

I hope they fix it in the next firmware, maybe less logging???
Or able to choose the logging level?

[Vagonbrey]

Is any new firmware coming soon?
I lost signal strenght on all wifis (both 5ghz and 2,4ghz)
had to revert back to 3.0.0.4.384_32799 to get wifi in my bedroom again...

Is anyone at ASUS currently working on this firmware or should I finally trash this router and abandon ASUS as a customer?

[cyberlipe]

I'm lost for hope

[staticrp]

Everything. released a new router, put a big "BOLT" on this!;)
