None of these are a problem on 2.4GHz. It needs some work.

I'm curious, did you ever get over these problems, and what firmware version is your HH5 running?
I've just begun using the HH5 as an AP again recently and from what I find, the range and performance is actually exceptionally good. Literally beating every other router I have. There's some instabilities specifically, and only with my mobile phone, from what I tell, whenever the transmit buffer becomes full, but with other AC devices (e.g. laptops) it's perfectly stable.
The 2.4Ghz range and performance are also pretty decent, but being only 2T2R is handily beaten by my various 3T3R 2.4Ghz routers in raw speed.
