Once per few days my WRT1900ACS is going offline

I have a WRT1900ACS with OpenWrt 18.06.2 r7676-cddd7b4c77 / LuCI openwrt-18.06 branch (git-19.020.41695-6f6641d) which is generally working great but once per few days/weeks it goes down and only power cycling it helps. It happens few times in series and then again few days/weeks without any problems.

When it happens I have no ping to the router (192.168.0.1) and cannot access the Internet via Eth or WiFi. Can you help me debug this problem? Can I somehow generate logs even if I have to power cycle the Router?

Yeah, run a syslogger on your pc... for starters....

Jot notes in times durations... see status pages for any correlations.....

Down setting wireless if plausible for a while.... Sounds like some sort of heap buffer leak... You might be better places trying another release for a while... master or 06.1

On the router? Is logd logging to local file is enough or which other logger should I set up?

I cannot down my wireless network, my home automation is based on it :smiley: Is the 18.06.01 more stable than 18.06.02? What about master? Should I go with master?

It just happened again. Logs from logd don't show anything just before restart :frowning: I cycled the power around 18:31:31.

Does it help @anon50098793?

^ any correlation with previous times? aka hour of the day it occurs?

post output of;

cat /tmp/run/hostapd-phy0.conf | grep -v bssid | grep -v passph

tell us a little more about

-number of clients, protocols, etc. etc.

Tell us about any additions your running other than stock ( qos, sqm, offload, etc. etc. )

Thank you all. I returned my router to the seller, Linksys did a hardware fix and not it works perfectly.
