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

    I've looked here again after a while and I can't belive the problem is still not solved....

    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!

I am using V1.0.9.14_1.2.25 and have one Android phone with no drops.

Am not using anything Google.

Have 2 laptops running at 5GHz. One is on most of the day to listen to WCMU public radio. Nice clear all day until kids get home and we all start using the net. Then I get break in the radio.

Have iPad and 3 iPhones using 2.4GHz. And we use Wi-Fi to make phone calls, no problems.
