Router/Version: Netgear R7800
File/Kernel: DD-WRT v3.0-r52189 std (03/28/23)
Previous/Reset: DD-WRT v3.0-r52148 std (03/26/23), no reset this time.
Mode/Status: 2 devices, Wired access points (DD-WRT firmware, AC/N mixed, VHT80)
Issues/Errors:
Flashed using GUI on Firefox 111.01. I was previously using Vanilla firmware as my wife has an older laptop with a QCA61x4 chipset (that Lenovo won't let you upgrade). With DD-WRT firmware, it would randomly drop connections briefly or refuse to connect on wakeup, which wasn't the case with Vanilla.
With the improvements mentioned in this and the last build, I switched both devices to DD-WRT, rebooted them, and even her touchy laptop seems to be happy. Uptime is just under 2 days and not one random disconnect or wakeup issue. _________________ __________________________

DD-WRT v3.0 STD
Router/Version: TP-Link Archer A7 V5
File/Kernel: DD-WRT v3.0-r52189 std (03/28/23)
Previous/Reset: Flashed over the TP-Link factory firmware and factory reset after flashing
Mode/Status: 2 devices on 5GHz band, 6 devices on 2.4 GHz band and one desktop connected to ethernet 1
Issues/Errors:
No errors difficulties in flashing.
Observations:
1. Immediately after flashing and rebooting (factory to dd-wrt), the WAN led stayed orange, ethernet led 3 and 4 stayed on though nothing is connected to those ports
2. WPS led stays on/lit always [the one with the up / down arrow (can it be disabled?)
3. Even after upgrading the latest build, reboot and reset to defaults, WPS led stays on. My desktop is connected to ethernet 1 and nothing is connected to ports 2,3,4. But whenever ethernet port 1 is active, led of ports 3 and 4 are also lit up.
If ethernet port 1 is active, led of port 3 and 4 are on and stay on even after ethernet port 1 is disconnected. After some time, 2 4 GHz radio stops responding and does not connect. This is happening only if ethernet port is active or something is connected to ethernet ports.
