update to at least 23919, avoid 24118 & 24160, 24461 has ht40 2.4ghz channel issues
current ios devices are all 1x1:1 & on ht20 which is what apple forced them to use on 2.4ghz, the max is about mid 50's. on 5ghz max is about mid 90's cause on 5ghz they can use ht40.
there is a free app on the app store called wifi sweetspots, install that & itll tell you the throughput between the router & your device & is helpful for troubleshooting throughput issues _________________ LATEST FIRMWARE(S)

I try to change ht 20 only and ht40 only

The namber of build dont make the magic
Again with stock firmware i get max 30mb max with ipad
My laptop get 82mb speed down

you cant compare the speeds of your laptop to ios devices, ios devices use ht20 only on 2.4ghz, your laptop can use ht40, that is apple's restriction on 2.4ghz
did you try following the wifi settings on the link in my sig? _________________ LATEST FIRMWARE(S)

yes i try any config but no change
why the stock firmware the speed is good?
I think it's because stock firmware is specifically designed for that particular hardware, uses proper drivers, has hardware nat etc etc! ... Whereas ddwrt uses the ***jack of all trades master of none*** approach!
(Stick with stock if you want maximum speed / performance from ya kit!)
