I use a bridge with 2 asus ac66u.
Channel 112, upper,uppder, mixed, 5ghz for first router
AC only, 5ghz for second router.
What is maximum speed between two routers in bridge?
I have maximum 38-40MBytes/s.
Which wireless channels you use is really not important, since everybodys environment will be different (what works for you may be a horrible choice for others).
I'm getting about the same - 37MBps (megaBYTES per secord) - for a windows file copy between PC's on each side of my wireless bridge.

Hi,
I installed DD-wrt on the RT-AC66U and have tried reinstalling it. I cannot get speeds over 130mbps on my FioS Connection. I tried adding the script from the router slowdown guide, but it has not helped, capping out at 130mbps. Should I be using a different build? Is there anything else I should change?

Are you talking about wireless speeds or WAN speeds?
If wireless on the 2.4Ghz radio, I had to set channel and channel width to "auto" in order to get wireless connections over 130Mbps. _________________ 1 x Linksys WRT160n v3

I had the same issue with my FiOS connection, except it was capped at 100 Mbps. I re-flashed Merlin's killer build and I'm back up to 150 Mbps. Brainslayer probably knows why.

This is the reason why I'm not running DD-WRT even though I would like to. I'm so used to the interface and all the settings but for now I'm also running Merlin's build. _________________

talking about more than 2 minutes
thanks in advance jacky
first boot can be very long. all others should be done in a few seconds _________________ "So you tried to use the computer and it started smoking? Sounds like a Mac to me.." - Louis Rossmann https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL_5YDRWqGE&t=60s

alright then. I reset my router and now its back up 45 seconds after pressing reboot instead of 270 seconds very weird. oh well(have nvram backup if interested)
I do however still have a LAN hard limit of 200 Mbits/s it just won't go higher. (this is from my pc directly to the router) _________________ Hi
2x Netgear R7800
First of all, thank you Brainslayer for maintaining this great firmware.
I flashed my AC66U with DD-WRT v24-sp2 (05/12/13) giga
(SVN revision 21592).
I initially bought this router to replace my 54GL which has been running a Vlan for years but lacks wireless speed. I must have a Vlan mapped to one port.
Although I can detach port 4 and assign it to vlan 3 (assigned to bridge = none) the router stalls after I apply the settings.
I lose connection to the web-interface, my ssh-connection via Putty loses its connection and my ping requests get no answer.
This prevents me from doing any settings in the Setup > Networking page.
Can anybody confirm this behaviour?
Only a 30 seconds reset (in which all settings revert to default) helps me to get the connection to the router back.
A work-around bij configuring the vlan via Cli would be a good work-around for me, but I found many howto's which differ from each other, so I'm not sure which one to use.

I've had problems with this build as well. I tried to change DNS settings and lost all access.
I then rebooted the router, just a regular, not 30 second reboot, and afterwards I could telnet to it and get out to the internet, but no access to the GUI.
I was able to get back to the GUI after a 30/30/30. I will see how it operates for a while, but I may revert to 21286.
Yeah, I am having problems accessing the GUI again. Nothing obviously wrong in the messages file. So, I don't know what to do about it. If there is some other debug information that could be useful, please let me know how to collect it.
