Hi, What's the best Setting for my wireless on the 5-23-2018 beta, I always keep getting back to the Stock Firmware because my speeds on my 5G Wireless is not as fast as the Stock firmware, I always leave it as a default settings since if I change it keeps getting disconnected. When I use the 80Mhz channel. Or have a hard time with my iPhone to connect. Any advice on the best setting for the 5G?

No surprise there. I went through a wrt1900ac v1 a wrt1900acs v1 and a wrt3200acm all of which had slower wireless speeds then the OEM. The wrt3200acm was getting closer when I finally after 3 years of disappointment moved on to a Netgear r8000 and then because of firmware issues both OEM and dd-wrt now am running a Asus rt-ac86u. Both the r8000 and the rt-ac86u are faster for me then the Linksys, both OEM and 3rd party, dd-wrt or lede. The rt86u just sits there and runs with Merlin firmware. _________________ Unifi Security Gateway:Unifi Firmware Netgear r7800:Voxel Firmware Modem:Netgear CM500V voice and Data.

There was a list floating around somewhere. Have you tried switching off the USB ports. You may be surprised with the results.
Here are my settings (v2) and my speeds are superb up to 200MBps (thats my current ISP limitation).
