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!

So how do I go about flashing the new firmware once I download it from the website? Can I do it from my routerlogin.net page?

Flash it like any other firmware. It takes longer to boot up. After that, you can enjoy the stability that this router should have had all along.

Like I said I'm limited as far as routers go, I've never flashed firmware before.
