Thanks Ben In this case, the router is sitting between 0% and 1% load. It's accessible via webfig (although I normally have a port forward to the OpenVPN server behind it) and the only address lists are the whitelists for my network.

Can you access the device via the web? Could there potentially be a firewall rule that's adding you to a block list? I know dynamic firewall entries are cleared out on reboot.

At the moment I have a CCR1009 at a client site that's working perfectly and I can ssh into it, but I can't use Winbox or the Dude. If I reboot it, it'll come good (but I'll have to do that late at night). I've had some x86 routers do the same thing. I can't see anything obvious in the logs or active connections. The problem occurs with multiple different ROS versions. Does anyone have any suggestions for troubleshooting this?
