Since I've flashed Tomato a few weeks ago I've forgotten that I have a router- it's working perfectly getting dust because i do not touch it at all :-)...
Parental control works perfectly, 0 drops, strong signal - save your time and do a similar thing!

They obviously don't understand the root cause or they would have fixed it.
Are you guys using same or different passwords for 2.4 and 5Ghz?
If you run a tool like WiFi Analyzer on your phone and set the update frequency to high, then look at the Channel Time graph, when the problem occurs do you still see the 2.4Ghz network active on the analyzer?
What devices do you have connected?

I'm experiencing the problem since last 2 versions of code. I've had the same password on my 2.4GHz and 5GHz SSID's for years. Has anyone seen that changing the passwords fixes the problem? I'd prefer not to experiment, since changing the passwords will be a real hassle for many of my IoT devices.
