Hi,
Seeing there are reboot issues involving the wrt1900ac v1 and the 4.9 kernel, is there any chance that a build could be created using the 4.4 Kernel ?

Just use one of the older builds posted on the ftp site with the 4.4 kernel. The driver updates are for the wrt3200's not the wrt1900's. The wrt1900 drivers have been solid for sometime now. I used to run a wrt1900ac v1 and it was solid with the newer builds. Now have a wrt3200. Now that Marvell has come out with updates to the driver it is also a solid router.

If you want to try a different 3rd party firmware you can try davidc502's LEDE build. He has one for the wrt1900ac v1 with the 4.4 kernel and latest drivers.You can get it here.

Select mamba and you will be taken to a download page.

To get the custom v1 build with the 4.4.x kernel, make sure you grab the version labeled
Code:
1900ac Version 1 owners may experience REBOOTING issues, if so, use this build Here
