What would be a stable, robust, error free build for
TP Link TL WR 470N?

I am setting this up for an older family member so once its done, I wont play with it for 6 months.

Just installed the latest beta 2016/04-05-2016-r29409/tplink_tl-wr740nv4, for those who are interested its working well and error free.

tl-wr740n v4
I know it sounds unprofessional and stupid ( Surprised ) but flashing new builds (r29218_3.7.2016 and r29409_4.5.2016 particularly) reduced TX Power from 16 to 13 Crying or Very sad

I have today's screenshot with previous fw (can't be 100% sure, it was either r18777 or r18740) and you can see in status 16dBm

Tried to setup same settings, or different ones - can't make it back to 16 Shocked

search for "betas" and update your current dd-wrt firmware. The "stable" ones are quite old and do not work properly

Hi. I'm new here and I need to know two basic (for most of you) things.
I have the WR740N v4.26 router with stock firmware (3.16.xxxx).
I know it will flash via web update etc. But I need to know which hard-reset method to use before and after the dd-wrt flash? 30 or 30/20/30 ?
Also which is the most stable dd-wrt build for it?
I'll use it only for wifi client (router) mode.
Do I only flash the factory-to-ddwrt.bin file or I have to flash the ..webflash.bin file in addition?

A user posted above that build 29409 from April is good to go with. The router-database suggests 21061..
Confused.

Thanks.

Thanks, so only 30 sec while the router is On.

Ok, listening to the users, but the next post is about TX power problems with the same 29409 Smile .
Maybe I will go with that, less TX power wouldn't be much of a problem to me I guess.

It takes less than 30 seconds to start reboot, usually responds in 10-15

Same encryption in link? same tx power? obstacles? interference?

Also check Ack timing to be 30% over actual distance.
Check all this and post results to help u.
