Had the same problem on this firmware.  1st 5Ghz channel kept dropping.  Updated to the latest Version 1.4.3.88 and the problem vanished.  Both 5Ghz channels are solid, and have been overnight.

Wired speeds are good:

 

Also onboard Speed Test app seems to be fixed working now:

 

Will also monitor for DNS issues. I'm using default ISP detected DNS addresses.
