Notes: 1. SFE accelerated NAT is in 33006+ builds but only in kernel 3.2 and newer 2. 'KRACK' vulnerability fixes were completed in r33678 for Broadcom, including k26 (33655) & k24 (33656); use 33772 or later.
3. Bridge modes on k4.4 devices may sometimes work in some configurations in certain builds but are not supported by the bcmdhd driver. Use client or repeater instead as WDS doesn't work with Broadcom ARM either (see Issues below).
4. PBR/UDP with SFE working again since r40513 (see 6729)
4. CAKE scheduler added since r40547 (see 5796)
Issues, observations, and/or workarounds reported: 1.Trendnet 81*DRU models are missing factory-to-flash 2.DNScrypt is mostly only using v2 protocols now, but requires Golang that DD can't use:6246 3.WDS does not work on Broadcom ARM devices (only MIPS<->MIPS) 4.K2.6 builds are broken since 38253(?) (GUI issues):6538 5.VAPs not working at boot; workaround startup command:
sleep 10;stopservice nas;stopservice wlconf;startservice wlconf;startservice nas
This appears fixed (only for unbridged VAPs?) with r40564:40566...
Important: if reporting any issues, provide applicable info (GUI syslog, `dmesg`, `cat /var/log/messages`, etc.)
Or put into SVN ticket. For firewall issues, also provide "iptables" info (`iptables -L`, `iptables -t nat -L`, & the /tmp/.ipt file).
Template to copy (after "Code:") for posting issues, be sure to include the mode in use (gateway, AP, CB, etc.):

Tested on:
Router/Version: WNDR4500v2
File: DD-WRT v3.0-r40932 giga (09/07/19)
Kernel: Linux 3.10.108-d8 #26590 Sat Sep 7 11:11:38 +04 2019 mips
Mode: Access Point/switch WAN assigned to switch
Status: Working with issues
Uptime: 13min
Temps: WL0 44.6 °C / WL1 46.4 °C
This build still cannot flash without breaking boot loop and tftp stock then flash with .chk file while radios are enabled. Disable the radios (both 5G and 2.4G) and the firmware flash works well and is completed rather quickly. The previous build 40900 was stable if radios disabled. Stability for this build will be check and I'll update this post in approximately 24hrs or sooner if stability is still suspect with radios turned on.
.:EDIT:.
Current uptime is 16hrs and 39 min, forgot I had reconfigured a weekly restart. I has been stable up till 4:30am local time. So far over 24hrs the first go around. I changed the SSIDs from my mesh to a test SSID during that time. Not sure if spaces or special characters play a stability role but worth checking. Will post and update in the next day or so.
.:EDIT PART 2:.
System uptime is 4 days, 13:06
It has been acting in WAP mode since boot. Temps are still good. Moving to next beta version to test if still bricks on flash.

HSFC + FQ_Codel_Fast works perfectly on my N66U. Did you try to reboot one more time after FW upgrade? Most of the time a reboot solves all the quirks.

Upgraded: DD-WRT v3.0-r40270M kongac via telnet (update via GUI or ddup –flash-latest not possible because nvram is placed on linux partition and not linux2 partition due to Xvortex CFE)
Reset: Yes, before and after (Erase NVRAM and WPS reset)
Configuration: AP, DHCP server, 2,4GHz wireless running, 5GHz running, some static leases, SFE on, NVRAM size just 32K (NVRAM size should not be a problem with the Xvortex CFE), OpenVPN client on PIA with PBR script running.
Status: Up and stable for 3 days, excellent wireless speed and range
Errors: none so far

Yes. Definitely broken. It might have something to do with my Netmask Priority settings, but either way, setting HFSC broke the internet connection and reconnected every time I disabled it. It doesn't do that in r40900. I even tried a factory reset.

Thanks BrainSlayer!!
Hello, How about your score with speed test on 2.4 Ghz?
Could you check it with enable virtual interface on 2,4Ghz?
My speed with only connected 6 clients (two on Virtual interface) reach leve
l 30 Mbps some times mor but newer more than 60Mbps. On 5GHz I reach full speed (about 120Mbps) _________________ Linksys EA6900

Sorry this router is in my summer residence in rural France with really crappy ADSL, only one laptop with me.
Laptop connects at 144 Mb/s (two stream 20 MHz) at 2,4 GHz and 300 Mb/s 40 MHz at 5 GHz (laptop only use N so 2 stream 40 MHz is 300 Mb/s )
But can not test actual throughput.

Previous: DD-WRT v3.0-r40854 mega (08/29/19)
Reset: No
Mode: Gateway / AP
Uptime: ~4:30
Status: OK
Issues/Errors: All good so far. Decided to bump to this one for giggles. Speedtest numbers dropped off a little, but it could've been that the neighborhood cable usage was busy, or I didn't wait long enough for things to settle out. Performance wasn't noticeably bothered by the driver reverts prior to 40890 aside from that, it seems.
