I'd love to know the answer to this question as this is exactly what I do as well, try to stay up-to-date as possible and rarely erase.

There is no definitive answer Sad

I do it about once a year as a kind of spring cleaning also reviewing my settings again.

+ 1 for egc's reply of once yearly, rule of thumb.

Personally, like built in help pages say and I pretty much follow that;
- if changing a bunch of settings causes weirdness and cant pin it down to a specific setting.
- If suddenly after an upgrade there is some observed gremlin behavior.
- Once a year, if neither reset as above was done previously within that time period.

However having said that this year already reset 4 times, I do flash test builds anywhere from 2 to 4 times or more a day, depending on level of development.

I do test things thoroughly beyond my use case and while most people dont report weirdness's and notice quite a few issues some critical. there is no need to always report those on build threads, unless corroboration is needed.

Sometimes electrons decide that they want to go next door for a visit or charge is attenuated for some reason, cant measure it always, but it explains the odd gremlins,
I've noticed and seen happen SEU events twice here at my current geographical coordinates, never before see it happen (settings deciding to enable or disable themselves on unrelated pages I dont usually need), perhaps because my current address is not far from a military air base, who knows what else is stored around here underground, no Geiger counter to confirm, but specific radiation does affect these consumer electronics which aren't adequately shielded for such or for cosmic rays, it happens.

There are specific cases where you have to do a hard reset or reset to defaults; otherwise, you just have backwards compatibility to older builds with older var names and such. For example, if the variable value is already set and not correct on boot, it will cause issues and the only way to fix that is to reset. Case(s) in point: When swconfig was added to Broadcom builds as well as the whole fun of fixing ethernet port orders in the webUI and when wifi webUI access setting was not only fixed in Broadcom, but added across the board.

Cosmetic issue on Status...

Never had a bit of problem with Clone WAN MAC on the EA8500.
been doing it for many years ever since I pulled oldass WRT54GSv2 from my main.
My ISP holds static DHCP IP for me... that's why I use Clone WAN MAC.
Also works fine on the WNDR3700v4 or E2500 whatever I might throw in as main
AND NO, ain't never seen such cosmetic nonsense Twisted Evil

EDIT--NOTE:
iffin you ever use a nvrambackup you will ALWAYS have to THEN set any 'Clone WAN MAC'
That kinda stuff don't carry over ...and for good reason Laughing

Thanks for all the great answers to my question about how often to restore defaults and reenter a configuration. In hindsight, I wish I had started a new thread rather than asking in a build thread.

Archer C7 V2.

Upgraded from an ancient 30082 to 49326 with a full reset.

Only issue I faced was a lot of messages of "ath10k_pci 0000:08:00.0: consec fail!!" in the kernel log which went away when I switched the 5ghz firmware to "vanilla" from the default "dd-wrt"

I have spotted "DDR Activity - HIGH" once or twice in the log but doesn't seem to affect operation.
