I finally decided not to use my 5358u due to security concern (a report says that almost 80% of home routers has bugs and vulnerable to exploits due to firmware’s not updated regularly by the manufactures). Since tomato is no longer updated by shibby I believe it is best to try another open source firmware that is still currently updated regularly.
I am currently using TP-Link TL-WR940N flashed with dd-wrt March 2019 firmware. The router is working with no errors for more than a week and I hope my decision to use dd-wrt is the right thing to do. Although no firmware’s are perfect, at least dd-wrt has still updates for my router.
I am using my computer in online banking transactions that’s the reason why I a little bit paranoid to try dd-wrt or maybe openwrt in the future. I’m still exploring dd-wrt and was able to create a guest network with bandwidth limiter but no luck on using dd-wrt as repeater yet.
What are your thoughts guys?

nah, tomato is still pretty much secured, and since the source code is available, anyone can take over the project and continue it as if nothing happen.
there's a fork called FreshTomato-MIPS for this router cw 5356u tested using the minivpn binaries,

okey ba ang FreshTomato? can you give me the direct link of firmware of FreshTomato-MIPS? i got 5356u and 5358u for testing. all of us here in tipidpc appreciate your time and knowledge for answering our questions regarding routers. hindi kami takot paglaruan ang router kasi mura tapos nandyan ka pa willing na sagutin mga questions namin hehe. salamat talaga...

please take note to check the nvram reset option on the upgrade process and do the usual connect to wifi and reconfigure the vlan.

thanks polka. updated tomato shibby lang pala ang freshtomato so no need to learn ulit. sa ngayon mga routers ko ay:
TP-Link TL-WR940N - main router running dd-wrt connected to pldt modem (black yung luma 2.4ghz)
5356u - using freshtomato but need stress test
TP-Link MR3420 1.x - old router using april 2019 dd-wrt (working but stress test needed)
5358u - using tomato shibby (will be updated to tomatofresh if 5356u performs well in stress test)
Tenda f3 - use as repeater
asus rt-n12+ - use as repeater
last question: need ba talaga gumamit ng dual band router sa ngayon? surfing at offline gaming sa PC lang naman hilig ko .

well kung meron ka 5ghz capable client devices, yeah sure, but for basic use lalo na kung yung internet connection mo eh below 15mbps, well there's no point using a 5ghz wifi. well not unless you use local media server (streaming videos over local network using a NAS or something) specially if your streaming a high bitrate video then you need a 5ghz wifi.
to be honest, if your fine with the current wifi setup you have, then dont bother, just use until you have no choice but to replace it (eg broken or have a faster internet connection)

Change mu lang subnet (e.g. 192.168.0.1) kasi usually yung subnet ng modem ng fiber 192.168.1.1
Also kung 50mbps+ yung plan mu baka hirap na siya, naging issue ko yan before using 2x 50mbps connections nag random hang na yung router.

not really, medyo mahirap kasi yan. from network point of view, downloading and watching from youtube is esentially the same. both uses https, so kapag nilimit yung isa damay yung isa.

^pwede yan sa pfsense with pfblocker using the ASN Numbers, so all you have to do is add the ANS number for both google and facebook. tapos by default lahat ng IP other than that block.

punta ka sa IPv4 then click add., under ipv4 list check mo yung enable domain/as then just put the ASN numbers per line na gusto mo i block or allow.

port based qos yung hanap mo. in that case that's impossible with tomato, well at least without a work around.
if you want the work around way then do this:
create a new network, under br1 (set IP, different from your main network which is br0, then set the DHCP range as well)
then go to vlan, unassigned a port that you want to limit under br0 assignment
then create a new one, assign the port you un-assigned on br1 assignment and set that network to br1, after that it will ask for a reboot
then test the port and see if you get a internet access with different subnet from you main network, if ok then go back to your main network
go to qos and tick the checkbox that enables the bandwith limiter on br1, set the bandwidth speed that you like, apply and done.
check again, perform speed test. whoala.... port based (kinda) bandwidth limiter
now the caveat for that setup is, well, any device connected on that port is isolated in the rest of the network. if you know how guest wifi works, then it works like that.
if you dont like the setup above, just buy a L2 Managed switch like TP-Link TL-SG105E or TL-SG108E, that L2 switch supports port based bandwidth limiter.

pang n53 yang link mo, you need to choose n10u para sa 5356/5358 routers. tested yan sa 5356
of course, do the usual nvram reset on firmware upgrade and the usual connect to wifi and reconfigure vlan.

na experience mo na ba ito?
CW-5356U
flash ng default firmware na-aaccess yung gui (wifi and lan ok)
pag flash ng shibby tomato (wifi and lan not working)
alam ko pag flash ng shibby yung vlan aayusin p via wifi pero
nangyayari may ip at gateway binibigay ng router pero wlang gui.
may iba p bang way?
hindi nmn corrupted yung firmware ko ksi ginamit ko sa old cw-5356u at cw-5358u ko working nmn na aaccess ko yung gui kht d p naaayos yung vlan.
status:
may blink wifi led pag may coconect same s LAN port at WAN port s windows lan unidentified pag right click status s lan interface may ip n 192.168.1.37 at gateway 192.168.1.1 at dns 192.168.1.1. wifi no internet samae sa lan

^its probably the mac address, I random mo yung mac address na wireless interface mo (go to Advance >> MAC address), of course you can also just turn off yung mga conflict AP para ma access ulit.
