Router Model Asus RT-N66U
Firmware Version DD-WRT v3.0-r33555 big (10/20/17)
Kernel Version Linux 3.10.107 #16356 Fri Oct 20 11:03:33 CEST 2017 mips
Just updated from v3.0-27858 giga, to dd-wrt.v24-33555_NEWD-2_K3.x-big-RT-N66U.trx, no problems at all. I would suggest updating over a wired connection just to be safe.

And do not do the upgrade firmware via a laptop, notebook, tablet or phone, so as to avoid battery and power issues. Plug the device to AC power if you insist. _________________ Router: Asus RT-N18U (rev. A1)

Previous: DD-WRT v24-sp2 (12/15/14) big - build 25648
Mode/Status: AP
Reset: nvram reset before & after
Issues/Errors: yes: lost GUI for 5G radio within 7 days. 5G radio still functioned.
Post FW upgrade, did reconfigure by hand, including several additional reboots. (betas/2017/10-17-2017-r33525/broadcom_K3X/dd-wrt.v24-33525_NEWD-2_K3.x-big-RT-N66U.trx)
Sometime in the 1st 7 days of uptime on this, the webGUI stopped showing wireless settings for 5GHZ (wl1), and the 2.4GHz channel showed in the GUI as "Auto" with no choices (when in fact it was configured to a fixed channel).
Same symptom, whether accessing GUI via hardwired or wireless, and using multiple browsers.
Both radios still worked fine. Reboot brought both radio GUIs showing again. Don't know if cause is length of uptime, or (passively) accessing something else in the GUI.
