I have strange issue with RT-AC66U router.
I make connection to the router using onboard Broadcom BCM4352 AC adaptor with latest drivers.
Band is 5GHz. I’ve turned off 2.4 radios.
Connection rate is 866 RX and 468 TX. It’s OK.
But, If I turn my PC of or just disable and enable the onboard adapter for tens of minutes then rate of new connection is 175/175 sometimes 243/175.
Short disconnect (reboot of the PC) doesn't have the issue.
I found only one solution – execute this command “wl -i eth2 down ; wl -i eth2 up”.
After the command execution connection rate become normal.
IS there solution for the problem?
And second question.
My RX rate 866 and TX 486 sometimes 350. During my "games" with other firmware I saw dd-wrt speed was 866/866.
After some investigation I believe I found problem.
wl -I eth2 5g_rate set to auto. It cause low rate.
After I executed command wl -i eth2 5g_rate -v 7x2 -b 80 -l -g I got speed 866 RX /650. Data transmission on the new rate is absolutely stable. I suppose dd-wrt change something else to make auto mode work fast using high speed modulation scheme. You and Tomato firmware use MCS 4 or 5 and for some reason turn off short guard interval that result 350 to 468 TX rate.
Sorry for my English.
