I have DD-WRT v24-sp2 installed on a TP-Link WR1043ND router (wireless n/gigabit), the modem is connected to the WAN port.

Internet on the computer connected to the router with ethernet cable works well (fast page loads, consistent download speeds) and a Sony Vaio laptop I have connected to the wireless also works just as well, but my iPhone and our iPad won't work.

Both devices connect to the wireless network, but when you browse to a webpage it will 1/4 load then stop and timeout (or just not load anymore, the progress bar in Safari stays around 1/4 way), same behavior on both the iPhone 4S and iPad2, an original iPhone 4 we tried seemed to work ok.

Attached screenshot shows the current wireless settings in DD-WRT. Can anyone suggest any tweaks I can try?

In case anyone else has this problem, the issue was solved by using the settings described here:

Hi,
I followed instructions in the link you posted... at least the ones I could, because I have no advanced settings tab.
 I see in your screen shot that, this is/was the same for you. Do you achieved to fix this? is there a way to activate frame burst or other hidden option for us?

anyway, the few changes I could apply improved the connection, thank you!
