I did factory reset and still, same issue, I didn’t restore any configuration and set everything from scratch, about the memory usage it is strange, sometimes when I restart it stays at 39% consistently, others it is pegged at 55%, how do you make it go down to 39% again?

It looks like a timing issue, like a service starting before another service on rare occasions.

I guess the Firewall DDoS might be related to Virgin Media as ISP, not sure now.

Try with Firewall enabled + DDoS + AiProtection + Two-WAY IPS, I’m quite sure I had this issue also with my old RT-AC3200 as well.

Edit: While at it quick question isn’t it redundant to enable both firewall + AiProtection? maybe I’m doing this wrong…

When you test later check if this only happens when you activate the Two-Way IPS protection, maybe that’s the one conflicting with the Firewall DDoS, I won’t test now because my wife will complain again that the Internet is slow but if you haven’t tested it I can test before bed time.

I will give it a try later today,

It could be that AiProtection has is own DDoS which conflicts with the Firewall DDoS, maybe when AiProtection is on the Firewall DDoS shouldn’t have any effect?

Well, this is theory anyways.

You have missed all the fun with the DSL-AC88U and the memory Leaks/DHCP and firewall Ports etc. Firmware Build503 was released in February, so will be interesting to see if the latest Build585 does fix the issue you detail, let is all know?

FYI: I have just tested the combination of Firewall DDoS + AiProtection and the bug is still present at Build585, this is how I tested it:

• Go to YouTube before you activate anything and watch a video so that you kind of get an idea of what normal speed is.
• Enable AiProtection and watch again (should be normal speed)
• Enable Firewall DDoS and try to watch a video again.

I’m running the v9.10.06 build585 on my DSL-AC88U and I can confirm the memory usage is consistent at 39%, I have AiProtection and Parental Control on (for my devices and my son)

I bought this router a week ago and with the v1.10.05_Build503 there is a strange bug that happens if you activate the Firewall DDoS + AiProtection, basically the YouTube videos are automatically set to 240p or less, this is how bad the connection turns when you activate both settings, I haven’t tested this bug on v9.10.06 build585

Also, I have disabled 2.4GHz completely because my house has a good coverage (less than 70 dbm everywhere) but I dearly struggle with my PCE-AC68 WiFi card on my PC, it seems there is no decent driver for this card that consistently works on 5GHz only.

Sometimes my WiFi on Linux Kernel 4.18 cannot see the router so I have to switch to Windows, connect to the router and then switch back to Linux (dual boot), and on Windows I have to spend sometimes up to 1 hour trying to connect to the WiFi, very annoying, sorry for going a bit off topic here.
