'You MUST use WPA2 authentication with AES encryption only, or use no security at all if you wish to achieve N rates. Anything else is against the N spec and typically results in the client falling back to G rates.'
Everything works fine except my Motorola Razr I that have some drops on WLAN. It is only this (Android 4.2), the old Defy (Android 2.3) works better than with stock...
I have same problem. all works fine but my NEO 003 (smartphone от Android 4.2.1) have some drop on WLAN. Other devices such Samsung Tab II 10.1 (Android 4.0.4) works good.
WPA switch "AES+TKIP". On D-LINK DIR-615 that work fine.

Does somebody know if this post has been solved? I have the same problem.
Thanks!

Hello.
I got my WDR4300 (v1.3) setup as a client bridge. Everything seems to be fine but I get random problem where my PC loses internet connected (well everything connected to the WDR4300 "router")
It still gets a normal IP address but no internet access.
It seems to be a problem with the dns.
I tried 2 builds 21061 and now the latest 21286.
Both had the same problem.
I'm still not sure if it is a setup problem, a firmware problem or a problem with my (isp) router.
192.168.0.1 is my ISP router who does all the routing.
192.168.0.3 is a wireless AP on the same network(connected on the lan port not via wan, and dhcp server disabled).
192.168.0.5 is my dd-wrt flashed WDR4300
I tried the bridge with both wifi's and they both have the same problem.
As you can see I can still ping devices on the lan.
If I connect a other device (netbook or my phone) to the wireless router or AP they do have a working internet connection.
My pc is set on DHCP.
To "fix" the problem I have to either disable my wireless and turn it back on (the wireless on the WDR4300) or reboot the router.
This is getting real annoying and I hope someone can help me.
Hi Alterswede,
I have used cold solder (silver conductor paint) to bridge out the 8 capacitors as you mentioned in the other post. I have NOT added extra antennas for the 2.4 ghz channel yet. Can you confirm what the Tx and antenna gain should be set for both the 2.4 ghz and 5 ghz (ath0 and ath1) in the wireless advanced settings section in dd-wrt. I have them both set for Tx 20 dbm and 0 dbi for antenna gain but haven't noticed a great deal of improvement.
Thanks in advance.

The Problem is, the external Antennas are only for 5Ghz. The 2.4Ghz Network only has internal Antennas.
My WDR4300 has a horrible WiFi Range, my old MSI RG300Ex had external Antennas and a -30dB better Quality and Strength.
The modification improves the Signal much better than exchanging the Antennas. In the last post in the thread you can see that he installed 2 external antennas for the 2.4Ghz Network.
The external antennas of the WDR4300 are dual-band antennas for 2.4 and 5 GHz, there are no internal antennas.
The hardware mod improves the signal strenght by routing the 22 dBm maximum 2.4 GHz output unmuted to separate antennas. So the EIRP power can reach a higher level.
Also the 5 GHz output is affected positively but has a maximum output of 19 dBm. The EIRP power as mentioned above.
Don't expect a ferroconcrete killer, the WDR4300 will never be that. The manufacturer TP-Link has limited the TX power by EPROM settings.
But the hardware mod will also give you the chance to use an external WiFi booster.

Ok I was using dd-wrt on 2 Asus routers and was very very happy with the performance.
Now on my home used WDR4300 I am having very poor wireless range.
Even my Speedport telekom box was better than this. Now I don´t have a comparison to the stock firmware since I did not even bother using it and went straight to dd-wrt because of my good experience with asus ans dd-wrt (broadcom).
Is there a chance of getting better range out of the wdr4300? I am pretty much stock on the settings.

Hi,
I flashed my WDR4300 v1.7 with r23503 and configured it. Everything works like expected.
But a few days ago I couldn't connect using WiFi. So I turned the router off and on, but still could not see the WiFi. I used a direct connection and got internet access, but my computer got the WAN ip address and not a LAN DHCP address.
After more investigation I recognized that the TP Link worked as a bridge. I connected my old Asus to the internet and the TP Link with the WAN interface to the Asus to a LAN interface. On the info page I can't see any IP address for the WDR4300. Connecting the computer to TP Link (LAN interface) gives my machine a DHCP address and I can see it on the Asus (which also runs on DD-WRT since a couple of years).
Switching the cables on the WDR does not change anything (now I connect my computer to the WDR WAN interface and the Asus to a WDR LAN interface). Still get a DHCP address for my computer, but can't see my WDR.
So, is the anything I can do to reactive the WDR? Or is it now useless? Since I can't see it on the Asus info page I think it is working in bridge mode. I can't see any WiFi connections from the WDR.

Hello,
where i can find the latest build for my tp link wdr 4300?
I Heard theres a new build: r23838
Can i install it to my tp-link wdr 4300 and where can i download it?
When i search the router database on the dd-wrt website i only find this as latest version for my router: build 21061

Hi notchy, there is another new rebuild r23919. I am waiting for the new one with Openvpn 2.3.3 version and the bug "WPS Button Wireless ON/OFF" fixed.
In my version r23720 OpenVPN is inside, but with the heartbleed bug, I don't know if in your version the OpenVPN service is erased or updated.
If you read the timeline you will see that there are two tickets created for all that I have commented:
Ticket 3362 (4/10/14) UPDATE OPENVPN
Ticket 3369 (4/18/14) SES RADIO OFF BUTTON BUG
I'm waitint for the version that fix those problems.
r23838 has OpenSSL 1.0.1f which is vulnerable to heartbleed. Upgrade to 04-18-2014-r23919 in order to get most new OpenSSL 1.0.1g which fix heartbleed.

Could someone point me to the steps please.
I was unable to find some guide in the forums so I share with you the resources I have so far:
