Always online auto updates never fail

Except for when they do…
Guess that explains why my internet sucked this week.

And the bit? All automatic updates are enabled, but some are more enabled than others:
Asus has yet to address this, but the likely answer is that the definitions file for ASD, which resides in memory and scans devices for security threats, gets updated whether or not automatic updates are enabled.

I have automatic updates disabled but still got hit by this. How nice of them to ignore my settings. For a while I thought my router was broken.

Choose your own snark:
- The most definite kind of secure router is the one that's broken
- Some would argue it's still broken, by design

I figured it was my ISP being shit at first. But I tried rebooting things in sequence before I opened a ticket, figured out the router was going stupid, and then had to reset it because I apparently didn’t document the correct password and the auto setup process did the firmware update that fixed it.
