So, I've been messing around and I seem to have bricked my Gargoyle pocket router.... Anyone who could help me unbrick this thing?

It doesn't ping on it's default IP, but I can SSH and WinSCP into it.
Thank you

On mac you can use Terminal

Code: Select all

ssh root@routeripaddress

Ok, I've managed to access the pocket router via Terminal. What command do I use to update the firmware?

Try upgrading from the command line and let us know what error message you get.
