Gargoyle Forum

Thank you, this did the trick. spectrum analyser is working, so wifi should be okay. Mission accomplished, spare router updated and ready for use (storage) again

Just installed it on my spare Archer C7 V2. Seems to be running just fine without further configuration. Wifi untested.


Where to point the plugin source? Default is which doesn't seem to be populated yet.

The file with "sysupgrade" in the name is for upgrading a router that's already running a Gargoyle or OpenWRT. The other one should be the one needed for flashing from stock to Gargoyle.

5 years later, this topic is still relevant. Would it be possible with the current version of Gargoyle (1.14), either in the GUI or via command line? Wireless Client/Repeater in the same subnet, that is, and using 5GHz on the Wireless Client connection but both bands on the Repeater side. Archer C7 ...

Too bad :-( The router is doing AP duty and I was hoping to activate the guest network to improve coverage. And that functionality has just become available in 1.14. Some more info. To me, ot looks like there should still be a couple MB free once it crashes. What does cause the memory overrun anyway...

Trying to install on my old TL-WR1043ND V1 without preserving settings failed badly. The router ran into a boot loop, had to connect the serial cable to recover. Flashed back to 1.13.0, got back into the GUI and tried again (immediately after setting the password). Upload of the 1.14.0 sysupgrade fi...

I didn't fully grasp your problem then. Both our solutions were for transferring the DHCP assignments from the old to the new format. In your case, with both routers identical in hardware and software, the easiest way should be to simply backup the main router and restore that on the spare.

It is possible. Been there, done that

"I was able to copy over the DHCP and hostname settings by combining them into the new /etc/dhcp file using a spreadsheet. "

Should I install this one if I'm currently on the 1.15.X build from April 18th, 2023? or are these basically the same (except for version number and add-on location)?

I am back after trying 1.15. Once again the Factory Bin does it, but update yet again causes full storage

Why do you update twice? The factory.bin alone should do the trick, the currently available sysupdate files would install the very same version over the one in the factory.bin, I believe.
