Did you notice your wireless signal strength considerably lower when going to dd-wrt?

I put openwrt on my c7 V5 and could barely get any bars.

Flashed back to the stock and was back in business.

Another thing I've read is the third party firmwares don't get hardware access to NAT resulting in speed hits.

yes, and i had throughput issues when running in full-width G/N mixed mode compared to my previous Tomato/Asus RT-N16 setup. my phone would also drop out and reconnect intermittently with the c7. but in dedicated AC it seems to be doing well thus far. i cannot say for sure whether this was due to DD-WRT or not as i did not do a thorough comparison to stock.

Thank you for the reply, once we loose the last of our 2.4 devices maybe I'll re-try in AC only.
