Hi Mark,
yes I'll try to get the WRT3200ACM, but seller is holding out for a local cash buyer, rather than having to get Paypal and post it (note that I'm in Australia).
The alternative to the WRT here in Oz is an Asus RT-AC68U running Asus-Merlin (an Asus specific Tomato derivative).
Very popular here - Linksys has virtually no market presence here these days.
PS: here is a guy selling an EA6900 with Merlin:

Not strictly legal, only Asus can run Merlin. _________________ ------------------------------------

Well good luck on getting the 3200acm, but if you can't
I have also heard good things about the AC68U from ( LookingForMyMojo ) one of the Guru's here in the forum.
Just not sure they are at the same price point.
Good Luck

I notified Brainslayer of the CPU Idle feature being disabled on OpenWRT / LEDE builds that seems to have solved the reboot issue.
He already fixed it!

The next DD-WRT build release should run without any issues on the WRT1900AC v1 as it does with OpenWRT / LEDE.
Thank you, Brainslayer!
I will upgrade my WRT1900ACv1 firmware because of random reboots. Currently I use 36104, I saw 36154 is out but maybe I should wait for 36168? _________________ Kaan's World | @mkaand | PLEX Archive | Trakt.tv

I would wait. He's pushing a new build for the WRT32X tomorrow so the others may be included.
Thank you very much I will wait for next release. I have another question. Is there any way to grab all settings of DDWRT like a macro. I mean I know there is a backup and restore feature but I do not use it for upgrades and downgrades. I record a video for all settings pages and I set one by one. I am looking for a solution for this. Like a macro thing. Is there anybody know? _________________ Kaan's World | @mkaand | PLEX Archive | Trakt.tv
David seems to also be working with kernel v4.14. Have you heard anything about BS moving to this version?
Thanks much to you, DavidC, and BS for your parts in finding a solution to this issue

Not that I am aware of. I know there are several scripts for OpenWRT that can be used to automatically configure all your settings. I would imagine it could be modified for DD-WRT, but that's beyond my skill.
I just take a screenshot of each page if I change something.
@Psa01 I think Brainslayer will continue to use the 4.9 Kernel for the time being. I'm sure he'll move to the 4.14 at some point. The 4.9 Kernel's projected EOL (End of Life) is less than 7 months from now.

Can't wait to see if this also fixes the slowing wireless speeds over time. I haven't had any rebooting issues, but am just using it as an AP for only music streaming devices. _________________ Tutorial for flashing WRT series WRT Installation,Upgrade & Basic Setup–Cliff Notes
