Is it me, or did this last update improve speed? My response time for everything from DNS queries to web page loading seems quicker. I checked my connection and my raw speed has not changed. _________________ Netgear R9000

I don't have any proof, but yes, ping times from a wifi client to the access point, as well as through the wap/router out to the internet seem snappier. Also jitter is lower - multiple speedtests from multiple devices are handled smoothly with ping times out to the internet showing very little variance.
I was running 38570 for 33 days, then upgraded to 39101 for a couple days, then 39137 for a day, and now just upgraded and tested 39144. I'm not sure when these improvements happened, but 39144 looks fantastic at this early stage (4 hours uptime). Smooth upgrade - no issues.
did this upgrade at 14:30 so a little over 9 hours so far so good it is more responsive so i checked the svn, there was a downsize of code in there so maybe thats it i dunno but its for sure more responsive. _________________ Downloads:

NAS via USB Samba also working fine
*** NOTE ***
Still unable to flash to my Buffalo WZR-HP-AG300H for those interested. Still on v3.0-r38581 std (02/06/19)
Should I assume that support for the wzr-hp-ag300h is over since its been quite some time since it would flash?
One thing that I've noticed in the latest builds is that link quality has dropped due to the inability to enable noise immunity if previously disabled. In fact, a good number of options disappeared in the latest releases including setting which compression method to use for wireless packets, radar detection, and antenna chains. These all exist on the near-useless Ath2, but Ath0 and Ath1 were Nerfed.

Looks like BrainSlayer worked on this recently after this release. See ticket https://svn.dd-wrt.com/ticket/6586 _________________ Linksys WRT3200ACM:

To help BS a bit (and the community), could you, please, indicate what the last build is, in which these options were still available? _________________ Linksys WRT3200ACM:

It'll do some digging, but I can try.
I know it was in the "suggested" build when I first flashed it, but it's been a while and I'll have to narrow it down by flashing older versions.

I am definitely not the one who can help you further once you have found the build in question. I am too new to DD-WRT for that. But my hope is that there is someone else who can give you more helpful info at that stage. _________________ Linksys WRT3200ACM:
