What happened with Asus routers this morning?

Unbelievable. I struggled with this the whole day. Checked the ISP status. Thought, it could be overheating (router is in the garage) or bad RJ-45. Had to reboot multiple times today. Never ever I would have guessed it was a firmware issue.

Thank you for writing this blogpost. I just upgraded firmware. So happy when something has an explanation. !

Why would your router overheat in the coldest place in the building?

The garage could be the coldest area in the building, or the hottest. Things happen, too...dust clogging ventilation, animals build a nest around it, router placed near refrigerator coils, etc.

I appreciate that you must live in a cooler climate. This is not the case everywhere. My garage cooks on a bad day. Great for the hot water heater, not so great for everything else.
