Do a "wl ver" to se that.
Thank you
well, tor is new... If someone needs it...
As for the wifi driver, shibby uses 5.100.138.20 and toastman 5.100.138.9, which is older afaik.

I'm getting good speed using Toastman's newest build v1.28.0500 with wifi driver 5.100.138.9 over Shibby's 97 64K NVRAM.
That's strange as most people find the newest 138.20 driver much better.
After a a few tweaks in Advanced settings I am actually getting with Shibby 097 64K slightly better wifi speeds then I get from Asus firmware: ~135 Mbits on average and ~150 in peaks on 5Ghz band with a large file transfer.

I marked with * the 4 settings I changed. Otherwise it's left untouched but I guess in Toastman build the defaults could be a bit different, so I post it all.
When I had shibby 97, it was the same sitting. I still have better results with Toastman because his drivers are newer.
Well, obviously I can't comment on your results with Toastman's or Shibby's builds but please don't spread misinformation. Toastman's build uses 138.9 driver whereas Shibby has 138.20 which is the most up to date Broadcom driver taken from Asus stock firmware. Now, I guess we can both agree that 20 is higher a number than 9
Not entirely true, Shibby uses a newer driver version than the one updated by Teddy Bear but afaik there is a least a newer version used by Netgear in the latest WNDR4500 firmware.
Also, I've seen different build dates with the same build version between Asus releases. That probably means that the driver was recompiled with (possibly) different options, which might affect stability/performance. So, basing expectations just on the version number can be misleading.
You can't delete it just turn it off. If you wan to delete you have to NVRAM resett and reconfigure.
