R7300 firmware config after 1.0.0.68?

I upgraded to 1.0.0.74_1.0.29 and faced the dreaded issue of network drops, but only with the 5Ghz connection. I had separated the networks (2.4g, 5g) as I wanted to see where the issue was. The 2.4Ghz worked fine most times and I was using it for IOT devices. The 5Ghz network was nightmare.

 

I had tried altering the 5Ghz channel from 153 to the rest. Some of them held onto for longer before network drops, but all 3 digit channels dropped connections (I did not test the 2 digit channels 36-48 though)

 

Didn't find much information on the network drops except generic stuff.

 

Thank you, Thank You, THANK YOU so very much for mentioning which version worked for you.

 

I immediately downgraded to 1.0.0.68. Fingers crossed now! 🤞
