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!

Yeah the hotfix is useless.
At this point your best bet is going back to the old but stable 1.0.7 release. Nobody has had consistent results on anything after that for speed and stability.

Agreed, hotfix was worse than the 1.0.9.18 and caused constant dropouts. I've downgraded to 1.0.7.
I'll see how that goes.

I've had to downgrade aswell due to wifi drop outs, is V1.0.7.12 the version that is stable?
- mzguyJan 03, 2018ApprenticeI believe no version is known to be stable. That's part of the mystery here.

So add me to the list of people having consistent discconect issues with firmware 1.0.9.18.
I was rebooting the router multiple times a day.
I finally got around to downgrading to 1.0.7 as recommended on this thread and all seems stable for the past 4-5 hours.
