I switched to this build since my post above but I can't seem to use the WAN or LAN PORT 1. Are these working for you other than the incorrect colors? Sounds like you aren't using the WAN port, but maybe try to plug in just LAN PORT 1 (no other ports connected) and see if it works for you?
The WAN / LAN1 issue is because of incorrect switch port setup in the default config. You can fix it by running the commands below, then rebooting the router. The commands assign the WAN port (switch port 0) to VLAN 2 (WAN), and ports 1-4 to VLAN 1 (LAN).
Code:
nvram set vlan2ports=“0 5u”
nvram set vlan1ports=“1 2 3 4 5*”
nvram commit

Thanks ks3! I just applied this on my router (build 28647) and confirmed that I can use LAN1 and the WAN port now. I did notice that the physical numbers on the LAN 1-4 ports on the AC3200 are reversed in the DD-WRT VLAN page but I can live with that over non-functional ports.
Do you know if this issue has been raised in a ticket?

I just purchased the Asus RT-AC3200 and I'd like to install DD-WRT. But first I thought I'd check with the forum to get some feedback in case there's any problems with the DD-WRT build.

Personally, I'll live with the Merlin firmware until there's an official release (it's still not in the router database). _________________ VertigoRay

To contribute to this discussion - after flashing my AC3200 to DD-WRT r29048:
I am unable to connect devices to WL1 or WL2 radios. I have permutated through {available standards} X {WPA,WPA2,WEP,none} X {win7,mac 10.11,ios9, ...} without success. ex: "!" or "unable to join"
Strangely, connecting to WL0 is no problem for 5GHz-capable devices. Which leaves 2.4GHz devices out of luck for now. Anyone else have success with second or third radios?
BTW, big fan of this project going way back, so thanks for the great work. Done my share of embedded work on wireless PHYs so I know the challenges involved.

Got the same issue, just getting wrong password on every nets.
I want to test more on the RT-AC3200, but currently it's a "mission critical" router. Until I get ahold of an AC5300 or newer router. Can't test DD-WRT with it. _________________ ASUS RT-AC3200 - Deployed Client's site

However, the router freezes up at least once per day in our office, and we have to reboot.
Does anyone know of a stable release, or a way to debug the crash? (after reboot, /var/log/messages is empty)
Alternatively, what is the best high-performance router with a stable build?
I see FlashRouters sells the ASUS 5300, but i assume they just flash it with a standard build, which I could do and save their $200 markup on list price.

Thanks!

What do you mean by standard build?
Have you done erase nvram? Have you tried Kong's build?
Posted: Wed Oct 19, 2016 4:04 Post subject: Problem with latest (today) firmware
I just installed the latest (today) version of this firmware on my Asus RT-AC3200. First access to router web page required setting new password, but then access to anything deeper than the main web page now gives a login popup that only allows about one second to type username and password before login popup disappears and web page redirects to "401 Unauthorized" (red background) page.
I can telnet in. Is there an NVRAM var to change the login timeout to something reasonable so I can type both a username and password before it times out?
Is there a different firmware version without this problem?
EDIT: It is working now, even though it failed many times last night. I was using the Google Chrome browser last night. This morning it worked on Internet Explorer (I logged in), then on Chrome as well.
