I've been using the routertech firmwares for perhaps 3 years with no problems.
We just recently purchased an ASUS memopad 8 android tablet for one of the kids and immediately started having wifi drop-outs which were unheard of before.
The sequence is that the tablet goes into doze mode through inactivity and then between 1 and 5 minutes later the wifi drops out for all other connected devices, wired connections and the DSL stay up and functional.
I googled around and found that android has a patchy reputation for its dhcp implementation so I went looking to strange traffic from the ASUS using some iptables rules to catch everything that the ASUS was sending from the start if its doze mode to the point it kills the wifi but all I saw was traffic to ports 80 and 443 - google IP addresses.
The system log doesn't show anything (with my settings) but perhaps with the correct log level on the correct item Logic / Entity / Module / User there might be something useful . . please someone advise if you know how I should configure this. I've set up a remote syslog service on which I can 'tail -f' the router syslog.
And finally , if I dmesg on the router as the wifi drops out happens I get this sort of message logged :
