Hello,

I’ve been encountering an issue with my TP-Link ER605 router in my Omada network setup. Over the last two Friday nights, the internet connection at my site went down completely. After investigating, I noticed that the router's CPU usage spikes to 100% before the issue occurs. The router then freezes, and all devices in the network lose internet access. I also occasionally see "heartbeat miss" notifications, though they seem to occur before the CPU spike. Rebooting the router temporarily restores the internet connection, but the issue happens again the following Friday.

Details:

• Router: TP-Link ER605
• Setup: Omada network
• Problem: For the last two Friday nights, the internet has gone down completely. The CPU usage spikes to 100% before the router freezes, causing a loss of internet access. After the issue, I see the disconnection, and rebooting restores the internet. Occasionally, I also see "heartbeat miss" notifications. The problem reoccurs every Friday night.
• Troubleshooting attempts: I’ve rebooted the router and checked for any firmware updates. The problem happens even when there are no significant changes in network usage (such as heavy traffic or large downloads). The router is running the latest firmware version.

Question:

Has anyone encountered similar issues with the ER605, particularly with CPU usage spiking to 100% and causing disconnections and heartbeat misses? What could be causing the CPU usage to hit 100% on Fridays, and how can I prevent this from happening? Any advice on how to fix this issue or specific settings to check would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
