Upgraded from DD-WRT v3.0-r54420M Community Build (12/04/23) via telnet (update via GUI not possible because nvram is placed on linux partition and not linux2 partition due to Xvortex CFE)

Reset: No not this time.

Configuration: Default gateway mode, 2,4GHz wireless running with unbridged VAP, 5GHz running, some static leases.
Four WireGuard clients running, one Server, one site-to-site clients and two Clients in Fail-over group to Mullvad (of course with PBR to allow the WG server to use the WAN).
OpenVPN Server running.
SmartDNS is working both with DoT and DoH
NVRAM size 52K (NVRAM size should not be a problem with the Xvortex CFE)

Status: Up and stable for 12 hours

Errors: none so far

Thanks BS!!

Update method: WebUpgrade
File/Kernel: asus_rt-ac87u-firmware.trx_r54475 std / Linux 4.4.302-st46 #10653 SMP Thu Dec 7 03:21:53 +06 2023 armv7l
Previous/Reset: r54420 / no
Mode/Status: Gateway / Up and running for 1:19 hours
Issues/Errors: Nothing significant

As always, the Quantenna chip has its own quirks. This is a closed source chipset
There is no way to install a channel.
But you can disable 5.0 GHz. @mpgalaxy hack "If you set the radio mode to station bridge and disable the network mode, the 5GHz device will turn off completely even after reboot."

The fact is that the router is connected to the Internet (to the Internet provider). And it reports an error, the red WAN indicator flashes (the icon in the form of a planet). The internet works, I just think it's a glitch.
But this does not affect the work.
Just relax

After flashing with no reset,, I did a soft reboot, power down, and lastly power up.

The firmware for Asus RT-N18U is still 50% of the usual size (since build 54079), unlike other Asus router models. Some recent builds had Unbound, Lighttpd and Curl missing. I believe core functions of this build would still be OK (as reported by khayalan), just like build 54203.

Waiting for a more "normal", complete build for Asus RT-N18U....

You can file a bug report on https://svn.dd-wrt.com/ if you think it is a bug.

I do not have your router so cannot test it

@rubeni: Please post screenshots of wireless configuration on this build with experimental driver. Just throwing hands in air saying it doesn't work without logs and screenshots and amplifying information is moot.
