Guys, does anyone experience issues with DD-WRT and Asus RT-N18U ? The latest most stable build seems for me Firmware: DD-WRT v3.0-r32170 std (06/01/17) ... anything I installed later is causing random reboots after several hours... I guess it started since 07-08-2017-r32597.

I'm using betas from ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/2017/

Any idea ? Can I somehow investigate and provide logs even without building it myself ?

Installed latest version from 4.12. - ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/2017/12-04-2017-r33986/asus-rt-n18u/ and router crashed after 2 hours / restarted itself. I tried to perform factory reset and restored previous settings from backup - still the same problem. Any idea what is wrong ? I'm back on version from 06/2017. Thank you.

Is your RT-N18U working as repeater or access point?
What hardware revision is your RT-N18U?

Hi,
I see you posted stability issue there as well ?

Anyway,it's in ROUTER mode (Wifi Wireless Bridge).

HW revision : can't identify (nothing on the box), command : "nvram get HW_ver" shows nothing, FCC ID MSQ-RTN18U

Latest version you mentioned do not address any of stability issues.

In dmesg in working build I see messages but I have no idea if it's relevant...

Code:
