Since the 4.4.5 update the GL-MT3000 started running this script every minute in a cron job:
Wed Oct 4 14:05:00 2023 cron.err crond[4007]: USER root pid 21148 cmd . /lib/functions/modem.sh;check_ip
Wed Oct 4 14:05:00 2023 cron.err crond[4007]: USER root pid 21149 cmd sleep 30;. /lib/functions/modem.sh;check_ip
I’d like to be able to disable this check from the GUI.
This is excessive since I have no modem, and it just pollutes the system logs with these messages.
Same for GL-AX1800. Very annoying
I am seeing the same problem with mt6000 since the last update 4.6.2 (2024-06-28). Likewise I do not use a mobile modem. The log file is now filling up with this error message, for example:

It's not a real error, only extended logging.
Was fixed before, guess the fix will come back soon 
Ok, thanks for the reply. I was only looking at the logs as I've had a lot of WAN downtime lately and can't match it to ISP outages. I won't pollute this thread with my other problems heh
Thanks all, I saw this before, collecting and uniformly process.
Did you keep the configuration for the upgrade?
If yes, please let me know the previous version
I did keep the configuration. The previous version was the last stable release (not sure what that was).
The config is NOT the same as your example but I did not change that myself (note the mispelling conlog):
My network problems are fixed now though, and were nothing to do with the router (dns loop with bonjour + pihole).
