Router/Version: Linksys WRT160NL
File/Firmware: DD-WRT v3.0-r43813 std (07/15/20)
Kernel: Linux 3.10.108-d10 #52430 Wed Jul 15 02:38:10 +04 2020 mips
Previous/Reset: Factory, yes
Mode/Status: Running as AP with WPA2-AES, all standard services and settings except USB storage enabled and basic wireless settings.
Issues/Errors:
Samba issues while using attached USB drives. I attached a 4TB NTFS-formatted hard drive, set up some public shared folders for Samba just fine. They showed up when I connected using Windows 7, but trying to transfer a file or read a file results in the router slowing to a crawl and eventually resetting itself. Before this happens, the status page gives a recent load average above 4, and free memory below 10%.
I tried reducing the maximum ports to 4096 and the TCP timeout to 1200, which reduced memory usage but the issue with slowing down and resetting remains. I also tried switching to a FAT32-formatted 16GB flash drive since the first post mentions some possible NTFS-related issues, but exactly the same behaviour was observed.
Without a USB drive attached, load average is low, RAM is about 20% free, and it all seems to be fine so far.

Yes, my router was very out of date. Only strangeness was that issuing the 'write' command via SSH shell on r35927 caused sshd to stop running, just had to make sure it was done writing before rebooting. Was my first time flashing using that method too.
Installed YAMon v4.0.7 after the upgrade, no problems.

Router : TP Link WR941NDv6
Upgrade : from r40750
Reset : No
Mode : Router / AP with SFE
Radio Scheduling on WebUI not working, if scheduled Radio off the Radio is back ON after reboot. This seems broken on all builds from 2020 for my Router I have tested. Should be checked on other devices.
