I'm currently seeing two major issues running DD-WRT on my WRT1900ACv2, with the latest (10.3.0.17) driver and firmware (ver. 7.2.9.2)

1. Low Wireless troughput:
Wireless troughput is 'stuck' or capped at <25mbps

2. High latency over WiFi:
Latency is really abnormally high 25ms to 30ms or more

Now I’ve read that some of you are affected by latency and throughput issues as well and i would like to know how many of us are affected.

If you own a WRT1200AC, a WRT1900AC, a WRT1900ACv2 or a WRT1900ACS and are seeing the aforementioned issues, please report them below.

Please incorporate the following in you report:

- Router model (e.g. WRT1200AC / WRT1900AC / WRT1900ACv2 / WRT1900ACS);

- DD-WRT build number;

- mwlwifi driver version;

- the Operating System and / or kernel version of the Wifi client you use(d) (for testing);

- a description of the problem (high latency - in ms - and / or - throughput is
capped at 25mbps or below).

The mwlwifi driver version can be found by running the following command on you're router:
strings /lib/ath9k/mwlwifi.ko | grep -i 10.

Latency can be tested by pinging a server or using speedtest.net
Please note that latency over wired LAN is normal; the issue seems limited to WLAN.
If there's a big difference between latency over LAN and latency over WLAN you're probably affected.

Thank you for you're cooperation!

I have issue #1. The wifi performance is capped at 25-30mbps.

my latency seems normal.

Router: wrt1900AC

BUILD: 29409

Driver version :10.3.0.17-20160324

wl0 - Radio Settings: AP mode with ng-mixed wpa2-aes, ch#1 20/40 upper.

wl1 - Radio Disabled

Client(s) I've tested wifi speed with include, Mac and Windows hosts. I've also tested with iperf between two routers. No matter what when connected to the wrt1900ac I never get higher than 30mbps,and 20mps-25mbps is the normal.
