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!

Did you check to see if you have interference on the wifi channel you are using from neighboring routers? If not, this free Android app (Wifi Analyzer) can be used to help you determine the best wifi channel to use:

I've been using it for a number of years and find it very useful.

jmooremcc With all respect but I work in the ICT for more than 25 years. I know what I am doing. I use channel 13 for 2.4GHz for years and also with my new Linksys WRT1900ACS now. After updating a lot of people got the same problems. What a coincidence. Netgear broke something and they know. They are working hard to fix it, let's hope. They already made some beta versions, all without success. And I know the analyzer app, who don't??
