I have successfully updated my v1 to this version. However, I skip downgrading to the factory firmware, and simply update to the latest DD-WRT version.

Hmmm really strange I will test later a different browser maybe it works then
Edit: it worked after I upgraded Linksys stock firmware to latest version i used factory to ddwrt and it worked
Interesting, I also upgraded to the the latest Factory firmware before flashing ddwrt so it may be a bug in the old firmware.
Have been keeping an Eye on Syslog server - no serious error messages or issues.
22:32 HRS up time for this new version now have been downloading all that time and maxing out my lan and wifi I would recommend this as a stable build for Linksys WRT1200AC V1 but ensure you flash from the latest factory firmware. Will report back if I encounter any issues.
installed on WRT1900ACS V2 but some of my wireless devices can't connect to the WIFI, it stuck on Obtaining IP. (but those devices with static IP configured, they connected instantly)
Upgraded with no reset. Will try to reset and restore my configuration.

If you reset, don’t restore the configuration. It defeats the purpose of the reset. _________________ I am far from a guru, I'm barely a novice.
Yep, running the latest Beta2. Full of awesome features, can even fine tune with services scripting.
Rock sold! SUPER FAST router. Wow!!!

Thank you very much! It looks like a very cool project. Seems to have many of the features I’m looking plus some other great stuff. Hope it can replace the DD-wrt config I have become accustomed.

Well I bought an ASUS RS-AC5300 today to replace my Linksys WRT1900AC_V1. I will flash straight to this version. Fingers crossed that ASUS RS-AC5300 will be a stable DD-WRT box.
You may be better served by flashing the ASUS AC5300 with Merlin Firmware. I struggled with dd-wrt on a issue prone WRT3200 for quite some time. I purchased an ASUS AC86U and flashed it with Merlins Firmware. I have not had one issue with the ASUS since it was purchased in January.

My kids are complaining that YouTube keeps on dropping with this build.
On the bright side, at least the WiFi connections a lot more stable that the April builds.
As for the known Bonjour bug, I don't care if it exists since there is only one iPhone user in the house and I'm trying to get him to go back to Android.

The beta you uploaded was posted on 5-7-2018. The final (non beta) release, RT-AC5300_384.5_0.zip, was posted 5-13-2018. I noticed they are the same size, and there may be little to no difference.

I have a WRT1900ACv2 and installed this build after booting to my stock Linksys firmware and selecting the DD-WRT build image from within the Linksys GUI. I have installed new versions of DD-WRT using this same method in the past without any issues at all. However, this build rendered my router inoperable and unable to be reset regardless of method. I had to resort to the USB to TTL cable method in order to get the Linksys firmware installed on the router. I then successfully installed my previous version of DD-WRT. I was then able to successfully install the Jun 1 2018 build using the Administration -> Firmware Upgrade option in DD-WRT. However, I ended up going back to the previous version of DD-WRT as my wireless performance wasn't as good.
Yes I have updated since. There appears to be no change. Thanks again.
Apologies for going off topic on this thread. I was a Linksys WRT (DD-WRT) advocate and wanted to buy a new router to replace the WRT1900AC_V1 (for known reasons). Going forward the eggs are currently with WRT32X, its new deployment layout and inherited challenges.
It was time to make a break. I narrowed it down to ASUS RT-AC5300.
I have experienced some new powerful magic and have been converted.
Merlin is at another level. It's understandable when ASUS is so supportive of development with a vendor source base to extend from. Great cooperative effort.

Yeah, did this and still the same reverting to 5-13-2018 build and everything's back to normal.
