Has anyone else experienced this? I recently decided to try out the trunk of OpenWrt and my Active connections appears to be filling up over time and then randomly emptying.

I looked in the system log and found that dnsmasq is doing something odd with my main PC as well, I thought that might've been it, but switching it off had no effect on the active connections.

In the System log, it looks like this:

 
Fri Apr 18 00:16:58 2014 daemon.info dnsmasq-dhcp[2315]: DHCPINFORM(eth0.1) 192.168.1.238 94:de:80:6b:2c:ac

My Active connections as of writing this, stands at 8000/16000 and rising.

Any input would be greatly appreciated, I don't want to have to to back to attitude adjustment...

Never mind, it seems to have resolved itself overnight.

I'll report back if things go wonky again.
