Re: TP-Link WR1043ND v4 Support ?

In case it gives a hint for anyone else facing similar issues. In the end I bought a Pi4B, a USB3-ethernet adaptor and have that working running an OpenWRT snapshot.

Re: TP-Link WR1043ND v4 Support ?

Thanks.
Unfortunately there's no 3rd party firmware for the ISP provided C1200 and the stock is limited. My choices locally are somewhat limited. Guess once we can travel again I'll buy and bring back.

Re: TP-Link WR1043ND v4 Support ?

Is it still the case not supported? I went away from Gargoyle when the ISP upgraded me to 500mbps connection and my old router lacked the oomph. I was looking at buying a better router to replace the ISP one and of course switching the firmware I can get the WR1043ND locally but it looks to be V4.

Re: VPN from sub router

Thanks.

I did wonder, I'd have kept the WD3600 as the main router but sadly that tops out around 110MBps. I'll stick to VPN on the PC and try and think of another method of deploying via wireless

VPN from sub router

I'd had to retire my gargoyle router when my ISP upgrade meant it could no longer keep up with the new line speed. Until I find something I can get here and run gargoyle on I am stuck with my ISP C1200 for which there isn't custom firmware. While the C1200 will work as a VPN server it will not as a ...

Re: Line Upgraded - what next

The ISP are going to provide an upgraded router in a week or so a TP-Link Archer AC1200, What's turned up is a C1200 V1 https://www.tp-link.com/za/products/details/cat-9_Archer-C1200.html which with the stock firmware is somewhat lacking, I managed to get the ISP branded locked down version off and...

Re: Line Upgraded - what next

Thanks. Building one has crossed mind, I'd guess I'd not need to bother with the wireless, just use the existing routers as APs. We're moving next year to a smaller place so I may get away with a single AP there.

Line Upgraded - what next

I see some similar discussions but not that I can fully answer my questions so sorry for what maybe a similar post. My ISP has just upgraded the line from 100/100 fibre to 500/500 fibre and now of course my TP-Link WDR-3600 which is running Gargoyle and which I use in place of the ISP provided DIR-8...

Re: Adblock Plugin

I'd noticed when running the Adblock script from CLI that one of the wget is failing. A bit of chasing and it is the second one wget -qO- "http://adaway.org/hosts.txt"|awk -v r="$ENDPOINT_IP4" '{sub(/^127.0.0.1/, r)} $0 ~ "^"r' >> /tmp/block.build.list I am seeing this ...
