Well here it is folks...

I have installed NEWD-2 k2.6 eko on a wndr3300

At first it didn't take so i unplugged it for 10 secs and that didn't work

I unplugged it for about 1 min and then it took and loaded up.

redhawk stated that you should be careful with the NEWD-2 versions on the wndr3300 and that possibly the wl1 antenna wont work.

I am reporting back that I have tested wl0 N-Only (5Ghz)

and wl1 mixed (b,g)

both wl0 and wl1 work excellently and the ksoftirqd problem that existed in k2.4 doesn't happen in k2.6.

The wireless througput on 5ghz went from 5-6MBps to about 8-9MBps using wpa2 personal with factory settings. I will do more testing and post back my results.

Was this using dd-wrt webgui or tftp? What was your exact upgrade procedure?

I also upgraded my 3 WNDR3300 units to 13575M tonight. They are set up in a simple WDS chain that has worked reliably for months. I am having a lot of problems getting WDS to stay up with 13575M, however. The units are experiencing high CPU utilization, unexpected reboots, and just general instability. CAVEAT: I did not perform a 30-30-30 reset or reset to defaults at all. I know this is against advice (although I have never had an issue before), and it very well may be responsible for the problems I described. I will try to reset and reconfigure all 3 tomorrow and see if that helps...

I used the webgui to do it.

IT IS IMPORTANT that you unplug the router for at least 1 min after its flashed. If not it will seem bricked. But make sure that you give the router plenty of time to upload the new firmware. Don't just load and unplug. I would say that I hit the upgrade button then waited 5 mins at least.

I also did a 30/30/30 reset, and that really helped the bootup time and stability.

True...with older NEWD2 builds. Starting with the release of Eko's 13491 build the wl1 radio was fixed.

Even after doing a 30-30-30 reset, this build causes my WNDR3300 to reboot every few minutes whenever WDS is enabled in N-only 5ghz mode. I have gone back to the K24 builds for now, and all is well again.

You would probably do better reading the announcements, this is an old thread that you selectively decided to dig up, alot has changed since Jan 2010, I wouldn't (and don't) run K2.6 Newd-2 builds on my 3300's at all, You'd do better running a NEWD build on there, but as i said, read the announcements and it will further clarify.

Just my 2-cents worth: I am getting great use with build 15230 on my WNDR3300. It is one of the current recommended builds for this router. It is connected to the WAN via a bridged ADSL modem.

Dude, THIS thread is part of documentation posted elsewhere on the site. You can't be THIS stupid not to understand such a simple concept. Fucking Eternal September, man...
