I changed my code back to 15962. I thought about converting to an E3000. Reason: Half my configuration disappeared (no reset and uptime was good). My IP address range was 192.168.0.0/24 and it became 192.168.1.0/24, my QoS was missing; but my hostname, and wireless configurations were unchanged.
It would appear that any ext3/2 file systems won't mount, or NTFS formatted through GPART, but when I format it NTFS in disk utility on OSX.. it automounts that volume.
So with that said managed to get everything installed & Transmission running stable, only real issue is streaming over SMB which is fine for anything that isn't high bitrate.. so really the only thing life would be to have ext3 working which I've heard has around 3x the throughput.
Also for others w/ this router, the only way I could get Optware installed was via:
install dd-wrt.v24-18946_NEWD-2_K2.6_mini.bin and then dd-wrt.v24-18946_NEWD-2_K2.6_big.bin on my Belkin F7D8301, so far the router run great. Both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz work fine. just 2.4Ghz is way better then 5Ghz channel.
I have 50Mb/10Mb xfinity, 2.4Ghz channel can have around 45Mb/10Mb internet speed, 5Ghz channel stick around 20Mb/10Mb no matter how close to the router.
Flashing dd-wrt.v24-18946_NEWD-2_K2.6_mini-e1200v1.bin to Cisco Linksys E1200 V1 went without a hitch. However wi-fi speed is awful, especially on iPad. Wife is not happy about this. I tried disabling the three settings related to DNSMasq on the main Setup page which seemed to help a little, but I really need DNSMasq so it's not really a good solution.

Try adding the following to the Administration>Commands section, save to startup, and reboot.
This will set the transmit power to the driver default and force enable interference mitigation.
try above mentioned settings... also I have new builds available on barryware's ftp that address alot of issues since that revision... I am testing 20012 right now if that goes well it will be up there.
