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!

I believe we're miscommunicating. The issue most here are experiencing occurs for ALL devices on the 2.4GHz radio, at once, Android or not. They lose connectivity, and once lost they cannot fix themselves, until the router band is cycled on/off. To clarify, this includes client devices that don't even have a 5GHz radio to switch to or from. This issue may not occur for over 24 hours after the radio is cycled off/on, but might occur as early as a few minutes afterwards. Consequently, testing any fix takes a minimum of a day or two before one can get some confidence it worked.

Just to add my me too, didn't understand what was going on until I read these posts. Having the same issues with 2.4mhz. Had to switch to an old router until this is resolved.
