I have the same problem. CT8, a base and a satellite. The symptom is loss of internet. CT8 logs show cascades of out-of-memory errors. Cycle power, and it works for 10 minutes, or an hour, or a couple of days until it dies again.
Gigabit fiber internet. About 40 devices (smart bulbs & switches, a couple of PCs, a couple of iPads). Heaviest usage is a couple of Netflix streams.
Works fine as Access Point only. Rock solid as an access point. Worthless boat anchor when used as a router connected to the WAN. Pretty expensive boat anchor.
Think I'm having the same issue...rebooting it seems to clear the issue for a couple days then watch the 250 megs of memory being taken. Agree for a top of the line router its bad.

I've bought ZenWiFi AC CT8 to improve my home wifi, but it's embarrassing how bad it is.
It keeps resetting every few hours with hundreds of lines of oom-killer in its logs.
That means that the operating system ran out of memory and has to start killing processes in order to free memory.
This causes total network death - no wifi, some wired network traffic is lost too.
I have to keep resetting it every time it happens.
ASUS - Do something!

Same here, exactly, but a much simpler network.
It's sad to see Asus top-of-the-line router fail on such a simple setup
