Model: Archer MR500  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.10.0 0.9.1 v0001.0 Build 241219 Rel.42593n

For the past few weeks the system log is being filled with two repeated log entries -

 

ID Time Type Level Log Content
1 2025-07-09 19:00:33 4G Error Exception:get_dns_state fail
2 2025-07-09 19:00:33 4G Error Exception:fopen fail
3 2025-07-09 19:00:28 4G Error Exception:get_dns_state fail
4 2025-07-09 19:00:28 4G Error Exception:fopen fail
5 2025-07-09 19:00:23 4G Error Exception:get_dns_state fail
6 2025-07-09 19:00:23 4G Error Exception:fopen fail
7 2025-07-09 19:00:18 4G Error Exception:get_dns_state fail
8 2025-07-09 19:00:18 4G Error Exception:fopen fail

 

These two entries are written to the log every five seconds. I do not know what causes them. Other than this, the router seems to be working OK. I want to stop these entries from being written.

  @tpdigi 

Hi, thank you very much for the feedback.

I understand that error logs can be concerning, but they didn't include much useful information.

It's great that you are vigilant about monitoring your logs. Currently, they appear to be generated without impacting the functionality of the system. Rest assured, and I think there is no need to worry much about it.

Best regards.

@David-TP Thank you for your re-assusrance. But most of the system log is filled with these error entries, This makes it very diffcult to review other entries in the log, particularly as these repeated error entries have a high severtity. I wish to know what might be causing them so I may stop them.

@David-TP Since messaging over a week ago I performed a factory reset of the router. Even after the reset, those two log entries are still added every five seconds.
