Model C2300 Version 1
Firmware Version 2.0.0 Build 20170922 Rel. 32364

I had seen this when checking under performance the CPU use will be maxed out at 99% ( no streaming or heavy usage in network) once I reboot the router it fall back to 8 %. Is this a bug or the CPU is actually running at 99%.
While in this stage I am not experiencing any degradation in performance.

I have run into this probelm as well. Make sure that 'Enable Media Sharing' is turned off under the USB storage device setting. It has something to do with DLNA causing the CPU to go to 100% on these routers and then a reboot is necessary to get back into your FTP server. Also make sure the setting 'USB 3.0 Interference Reduction' is not ticked either under system parameters for the 2.4 GHz section. This way you can continue to use two usb devices 24/7 on this router without the CPU being capped out.

@Tallboy 

 

I know this thread is over a year old, but it led me down the path to resoultion. Hopefully my advice will also help others in this situation.

 

Problem:

CPU pegged at 99%, reboots do not fix the issue. Internet connectivity slows anywhere from 50% down to 10% of normal performance. The interface is VERY laggy.

 

Fix:

In my situation I had a USB flash drive connected that was storing pictures from my webcam whenever it detected motion. The USB drive had gotten full and/or corrupt, and as a result the router had a tough time reading it, causing the slowdowns. I simply powered down the router, unplugged the device, waited a minute and started it back up. Everything now runs normally and has been stable for weeks.
