Gargoyle Forum

Hi Lantis, pythonic and all. I am back after some time. I have gone ahead and swapped out the NOR chip for one exactly twice the size (32MiB). Before doing that, I used a CH341 chip programmer to copy the data from the old chip (I flashed it back to Netgear factory firmware first just as a precautio...

:lol: Pythonic, I might have known it would not be that simple! Thanks for tracking down that info for me. I don't really have the confidence that I will be able to implement those software changes described on that page as I really don't know what I'm doing when it comes to Linux. There is a hardwa...

In the meantime I have got hold of a Netgear R6220 which appears to be the same device but with external antennas and 128MB NAND flash. I have flashed the latest Gargoyle image to this new device, and installed Tailscale. However as we already know the Tailscale version that gets installed is a very...

HI Lantis. Yes, the whole reason for having to use Tailscale is because I'm behind the CGNAT, otherwise I would have preferred to use Wireguard. CGNAT seems like it will be something that is going to affect more and more people in the future as mobile internet plans get cheaper and LTE coverage gets...

Thanks guys. You are correct that I am not using IPv6. I hope I have done this correctly. root@Gargoyle:~# which tailscaled t.d/tailscale/usr/sbin/tailscaled root@Gargoyle:~# ls -la /etc/init.d/tailscale -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1239 Oct 23 16:39 /etc/init.d/tailscale root@Gargoyle:~# which tailscale ...

Thanks again Pythonic. There is certainly hope there. I will see if I can get hold of another router for the home for now which will allow me to take this one away to the workshop and mess about with it more. I'm sure I will be coming back for more advice later. You have been really helpful in findi...

OpenWrt forum is the right place for these questions. Just be prepared for some level of naysayers and people who would suggest you just buy a higher spec device. They are inevitable and can be grouchy :roll: Yes I have noticed that about some over there. Everyone has to start somewhere - even the ...

Thanks for that link Pythonic. That gives me the belief that it is definitely possible to upgrade the NOR chip with a higher capacity one. The hardware part is simple enough. Unfortunately for me, the software side of things looks very much out of my depth.

Try opening two SSH sessions. In one, do “logread -l” (lowercase L) This will print the system log to the window and print all new entries as they arrive. Then do your tailscale up in the other window and see if it prints any errors. It is difficult to advise any further except what changed between...

Hi Pythonic. I kind of thought that might be the case about no auto-detection of additional space. I might re-create this thread in the OpenWRT forums as well. In the meantime I will try to get hold of an R6220 to put in the home while I mess about with the WNDR3700v5.
