I found that disabling all logging and then performing a full power cycle of my 963 system

I found that disabling all logging and then performing a full power cycle of my 963 system—a step I came across in the post linked below (which discusses BE systems)—resulted in a significant performance improvement in my setup, allowing me to have a mucher longer uptime before needing to reboot for system stability.

 

I was also encountering a connectivity issue with certain devices after 5–8 days, which required a full system reboot to resolve. After disabling logging, that issue seems to have been resolved as well. I thought this might be helpful to share in case others are facing similar problems.

  • Only ones I have enabled on my 963 system:

    Include in Log
     
     
    Connections to the Web-based interface of this Router
    Router operation (startup, get time etc)
    Known DoS attacks and Port Scans
     
    Wireless access
     
     

    I also have SIP ALG enabled as well. Normally disabled by default. Was mentioned years ago that enabling this helped as well.
