You said "I don't find", what were you looking for?

If you don't have any special requirements, expecting just a wireless router, BrainSlayer (BS) build 34411 should be fine.

New Build 34411 (BS): 01-07-2018-r34411

Mind to tell us the version/revision of your RT-N18U by looking at the label at the bottom of the device?

Hello.
For the moment, which is the most stable and error free build for RT-N18U? Where Wi-Fi performance is good and port forward is working?
I tried to flash latest build and router bricked...

The very latest r37442 works fine with RT-N18U
Two previous builds had issues though.

37442 was unusable on my RT-N18U in client bridge mode when paired with AN RT-N66U in AP mode running 37139 and with an RT-AC66U B1 running 34808 or 42174. I had link drops on wireless in both directions.

i decided to run 34080 on the RT-N18U with and an RT-N66U running 37139 as AP, still had issues, running 34080 on both RT-N18U and RT-N66U also didn't work.
RT-N18U client bridge running 37442 paired with an RT-N16 running 14929 was definately better

42617 on both RT-N18U (client bridge) and RT-N66U (ap) seems fine after 9h uptime
