WNR3500L unstable on Xbox Live

Hello there. I'm a newbie. This is my first post. I hope someone can help with my problem on my router WNR3500L. I bought my router 4 months ago. I have Netgear firmware. I don't have any problems until this week. My connection is very unstable on Xbox Live. I always get 1-2 bars. I updated to latest firmware but it still unstable, same results. i get 1-2 bars, it's laggy. I have open NAT. I even added xbox live port forwarding but still didn't help. Now, I'm thinking of using third party firmware but i don't know what should i use. Can someone please recommend the best 3rd party firmware i can use? Thanks!

Hi rhenzhen. I am using

Hi rhenzhen. I am using latest Tomato firmware on WNR3500L with Xbox and I don't have any problem. So I recomend Tomato firmware.

Thanks for the reply ONEIL.

Thanks for the reply ONEIL. Whatever version is the latest Tomato firmware right now? If you don't mind to redirect me the link that you're talking about, i would really appreciate it. This is my first time using 3rd party firmware for a router. I'm very cautious coz i don't want to brick my router. hehehe! How hard is it to replace the stock netgear firmware to Tomato? Also, if i decided to switch to different firmware like (DD-WRT), is it the same step installing Tomato firmware? Thanks in advance!
