Sorry for my English, I'm using the translator. Although I know something, it does it well.

I come back to the topic again. I have been looking for information for hours since I took the 1043nd v2.1 out of the box again.

I tried the original firmware, it seems to work fine, but I always like dd-wrt better. I am using it as an access point, where some devices are via lan but I have the problem in Wi-Fi, that I cannot configure it to render at least 50Mbps.

I have tried some firmwares, tx antenna chains options that seemed to improve, but after a while of testing I did not come up with anything definitive. Sometimes I would change something and only get 10Mbps.
The main router is an ER-X, and I have another Archer c9 router elsewhere in the house that doesn't give me any problems. Obviously I already know that the 5ghz of the c9 is not the same as the 2.4ghz of the 1043, but I will use the latter with devices in the same room (1-2 meters away)

Thanks for suggestions, the only thing I need is stable wifi (or do I leave the stock?).

I am currently using 46690.

See the following links for recommended wireless settings

I will say this, I use 980 RTS threshold, 400 Beacon interval, and 3150 Sensitivity Range (ACK timing) on mine and also a TL-WR940N v3 with no issues. I tried 784 RTS threshold and it didn't seem to want to allow connections, so I changed back to the old recommendation.

Thank you very much for your reply.
I notice that in the recommendation there are no changes in tx antenna chains.
Do you have any change in that option? Sometimes it seemed to me that it improved by putting 1 + 2 instead of 1 + 2 + 3 but I feel that the tests did not work well, because other times without changing that it went down again.

I didn't touch those settings in mine (for obvious reasons).
