Gigabyte GA-H97M-HD3 LGA 1150 DDR3 Micro ATX Motherboard i7 4790 16gb ram dd-wrt_x64_public_vga.image Up and running for more than 24 hrs seems like a good build thanks devs. First time using x86/64 build and it's wonderful.

flood404 and I found our CPU running in Turbo-Mode 24/7 in the newer Builds.
Could you check your CPU? Would be interesting to see what your CPU is reporting.

Looks like it's the same as yours between 3.6-4.0 tend to be on the higher side more often. I got a question how do you upgrade from the free version to the pro version?
To upgrade it is just apply the full version VGA x64 file through the webgui of dd-wrt. Then it will be running full version.
Now here's the thing I noticed. The Samba shares won't work until activated. The wifi part may be shown but not working until activated. I could be wrong on that. I know enabling ipv6 didn't work until activated.
Once its running the full version go to the activate tab and copy the code there. Then go here. https://dd-wrt.com/professional/activation/ put in the code the dd-wrt on your system give you and it will give you a key. Then paste the key and click activate. The activation will take place once its rebooted.
To fix the CPU turbo speed constantly. Put this in the startup script.
for CPUFREQ in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor; do [ -f $CPUFREQ ] || continue; echo -n ondemand > $CPUFREQ; done
That will fix the constant high clock speed while idle. Waiting on Sp!derman's test with that command to see if it fixes his issue.

I will not be able to test the next two weeks and have to wait for my testing-system.
Can't do testing of new build on my live-system any more, it took too long to bring it back into working state if I have to roll back.
Alright. So far it's working great for me with the r58163. I need to reboot it to see if the startup command script works. I just did that command through Telnet which will stay in effect until reboot.
The Samba is working great too. Youtube works perfect.
I understand about the 5 hours getting the system back up and working when the update goes bad. There is times it took me awhile to get the drive recreated and all the settings put back in. It's even worse when the browsers will not download the backup or allow a restore file to be uploaded.
Are you also getting a server not available visiting this forum with the code 503?

YES! The startup command fixes the CPU constant Turbo speed. It's now idle at 800MHz And it will go higher with a load on the CPU as it should do by design.
Samba works! Was able to read and copy a file over.
Kodi works without stopping.
The only thing I can't test is the VPN option. If someone can walk me through it on setting it up and testing it I would. I know Sp!derman had an issue with it.
