WRT32X Wifi Dropping

Hi there, @Tealc . Is this affecting both 2.4GHz and 5GHz radios, or just 5GHz? If it's just 5GHz, are you using a DFS channel? The Marvell wifi chips in the WRT32X are notoriously sensitive to signals it interprets as radar and will shut the radio down for up to 10 minutes while it moves to a different channel. Change to a non-DFS channel (typically ch36 in the UK) and you should find it a lot more stable. There is no fix for this and it is extremely unlikely that one will ever be forthcoming as the Marvel firmware is proprietary and development on it has stopped. There's a lot more discussion of this topic over in the davidc502 custom firmware thread and here on github
