Should I disable TR-069 Management on MY router? (lemmy.world)

(Not sure if this is the right community this, but I'm gonna ask anyway)

I noticed my huawei 5G router occasionally just disconnects. I went to the logs, and found this entry: WAN connection INTERNET_TR069_VOICE_R_UMTS1:IPv6 disconnected . (and then a bit later this same entry but with connected instead). This lead me to look up TR-069 things, and it seems to be the cause, apparently it lets my ISP manage my router (I guess?), which seems kinda not cool, so will disabling TR-069 cause any issues?

For more context, the router/modem combo 5G thingy I bought myself, and the internet access is from a SIM from a mobile phone 5G plan

This is usually caused when the carrier signal hops - if your ipv4 stays stable you wouldn't even notice. It can also be caused by lease renewal - some carriers allow a max of 24 hours

Personally i'd disable remote updates anyway because i don't let anyone control my tech but me

    It's likely not the cause but a symptom or collateral damage.
    It's probably just one of the things that no longer works when it disconnects.

    I would just leave it be

    If the disconnects are an issue you could open a ticket to see if they can help at all
