Recent Tomato by Shibby firmwares show an option for enabling CTF, but there are reports that enabling it may not actually yield a difference for some models or firmwares. At least for some Asus models, on Asus firmware with QoS and certain features disabled, the router activates CTF (known as NAT Acceleration) and yields a throughput that is greater than on Tomato with QoS and CTF disabled. Tomato firmware disables Broadcom Cut-Through Forwarding (CTF) by default because it is incompatible with some Tomato features.As of June 2013, there are test builds of Tomato with newer and faster WiFi driver. In general, Asus stock firmware may offer slightly higher WiFi performance than Tomato, because Asus usually uses newer Broadcom drivers, while Tomato usually sticks with an older but proven release that is more compatible with other client devices. In some cases, the WiFi behavior of the Asus firmware may be different from the Tomato firmware, because they usually use different versions of the Broadcom drivers.What are the downsides of Tomato firmware? You don’t like or don’t trust stock Asus firmware.You’re having an issue that you suspect it to be a bug in the stock Asus firmware.You’re doing P2P and the router crashes / reboots.You need a feature that is supported by one of the variants of Tomato but not the stock Asus firmware.(If you happen to make the router unbootable, retry the Asus recovery procedure with Asus stock firmware.) I have personally tried flashing RT-N16 and RT-N12 B1 only. Although much effort has been made to ensure the correctness of the information presented here, it is possible there are still incorrect or outdated information.
