RT-BE92U is Unusable

[cbj1903]

I bought this router to replace the Eero router my ISP gave me with their fiber gigabyte service.  I updated to the newest firmware 3.0.0.6.102_37435.  Once updated, I performed a hard reset of the router.  The router has contant CPU core spikes approximately every five to six seconds.

The real problem is the router contantly reboots throughout the day.  I worked from home today and the router rebooted 5 times in 4 hours.  No real pattern to the rebooting, with the router being online anywhere between 26 to 98 minutes between reboots.  At lunch I gave up and replaced the  RT-BE92U with the Eero as I need a stable router to work.

Is this a hardware issue or a firmware issue?  There are many complaints online about this router.  Has Asus found a root cause to the CPU spikes and the contant rebooting?  Is there a fix in place? I still have a few days left in my return window to Best Buy.

On another thread dealing with bogus thermal errors in the logs Asus had been involved gathering information but so far nothing new.  Some have been given access to beta firmware and I'm not certain of their results.  The only way to gain access to it is through Asus tech support.  As for the router, I have not had reboots.  I have no clue as to why.  I have MLO, WiFi 7 on one network, AI Protection, Adaptive QOS, and Traffic Analyzer all active with about 80% RAM usage.  My CPU cores all do a dance from near 0% to 90% but honestly in a way that I would expect given the demands placed on them.  Plus, there are hundreds of bogus log entries about thermal errors.,  Asus is aware of all this including reboots.  

The concern I have is what's the source.  If it's firmware, ok, I can wait that out as I'm so far stable.  If, on the other hand, it's hardware related that's going to be another issue as I live in Costa Rica.  Personally, for all this router can do I don't think 1GB of ram is sufficient.  And based on the questions Asus support was asking in the other thread I don't think they really have a handle on the problem.  

I wouldn't tell you what to do, but it sounds like you have a pretty paperweight on your hands.  And by the way, I also got my router from Best Buy.
