With the recent firmwares I've been seeing a decrease in speed as the router runs several days or so. After restarting speeds are back to normal. I hadn't seen this with previous versions. I've noticed it since 3.0.0.4.374.35_2. Currently using 3.0.0.4.374.35_4 and see it still.

Am I the only one ?
 
Are you running any services on the router such as the Media Server, iTunes server, or DownloadMaster?
 
No idea then. The RT-N66U wireless driver hasn't changed in the past few months.
 
I'm also seeing the same with the sdk5 build. It runs fine for a while and then a reboot is needed to restore performance.

I'm using basic AiCloud, QoS and Parental Controls.

Forgot to say I'm still on the 374.35_2 build

All I can do regarding wireless issues is to point people at what I already wrote in this post. So, the usual: use 20 MHz, use a fixed channel, either 1, 6 or 11, etc...

he is using the ea-66u and after a few days it slows down... he is using the 5ghz ...
