Hello,

i just installed the actual ddwrt on my Linksys 3200 ACM. My router is connecting with a Modem (Tim Hub) and PPPoe to Internet. Everything works fine.

But I have the problem that my wifi often crashes down and I cannot connect to the Wifi until Reboot.
This often happens when I am away from home.

Any ideas for this problem?

It would help if you shared what version of DD-WRT you are using, along with the wireless settings you have set up.
If you have any wired devices, when the wireless goes down, can they still access the router/internet?

I use the Firmware: DD-WRT v3.0-r39825 std (05/19/19).
After the Wifi goes down I just can connect the router via LAN.

Here are my wifi options. Acutally i only use the mixed one.

The thing is happening costantly to me with almost the same config (Italian Telecom TIM HUB)

I have costant daily nightmares connecting via wifi

dd-wrt version [Firmware: DD-WRT v3.0-r41218 std (10/01/19)]

Randomly it looks you can't connect to wifi on any channel (usually in an around 24 hour loop)

This is solved by a reboot.Did not test speed etc up to now i would like to achieve just reliability

included the athx interfaces configuration (default except dd-wrt broadcast non enabled) I read about enabling just 5ghz or possible wifi ..
I suspect something like a memory leak (and i noticed about updated wifi drivers on openwrt forums) i even tried to chedule a reboot every day (in case of a leak can make sense) but it looks is not effective

any guidelines on such problems >?

I am sure the gurus will comment but I will put my two cents in anyway.
First off t a more stable build. Review post and decide accordingly. My preference is r40009 for my application.
Never use channel selection AUTO, it is a known problem with the 3200's.
Disable ath2, this is for dfs detection and should not be used as an AP. The 3200 is not a tri-band router.

thanks for the reply ..

now i am on the DD-WRT v3.0-r41218 std

it looks a bit more relisble but far from i was expecting

Then i should use a fixed channel and not use ath2

any advice about channel width ? Are the drivers for mac compatible with any beside the 20mhz ?
