You should review this and maybe revert back to this recommended version of FW:

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!

mated, I'm not sure if the temperature causes unstable wifi. My R7000 was stable until I updated the firmware due to security issues. After the upgrade I never got the router stable, even restoring the firmware to the version that was previously stable did not help. That's why I thought the router had a hardware failure. I was about to buy a new one, but I flashed XWRT-Vortex firmware. This solved all problems for me. In this firmware you can read the chipset temperature (cpu: 138F, both WiFi: 118F)

Yes, I totally agree with you. Flashing the XWRT-Vortex firmware also solves the Openvpn server MD5 issue!
