IMO stick with the Netgear firmware, none of the DDWRT builds have been stable on this router for me.
Latest kong build 33010m is absolutely rock solid running for 5 days now.
just remember to disable sfe if using openvpn client with policy based routing

That's exactly what I was getting on my X10 - slow speeds or freezing on my VPN and occasionally losing the WAN. I went back to the stock Netgear firmware and now use a second Asus router behind it for my VPN connections - Merlin's firmware for Asus routers works flawlessly unlike the Netgear DDWRT.

Use the thread tatsuya gave you, this one is useless and duplicates the original one. _________________ R6400v2 (boardID:30) - Kong 36480 running since 03/09/18 - (AP - DNSMasq - AdBlocking - QoS) R7800 - BS 31924 running since 05/26/17 - (AP - OpenVPN Client - DNSMasq - AdBlocking - QoS) R7000 - BS 30771 running since 12/16/16 - (AP - NAS - FTP - SMB - OpenVPN Server - Transmission - DDNS - DNSMasq - AdBlocking - QoS) R6250 - BS 29193 running since 03/20/16 - (AP - NAS - FTP - SMB - DNSMasq - AdBlocking)
