Download correct factory firmware from TP-Link. Google dd for windows, and download that. Then in a command prompt you type dd if= orig.bin of= tplink.bin skip=257 bs=512 obviously stating the name of the factory image as if= and under whatever name you want to store the stripped file as of= Easiest...

The router has now been running successfully for several weeks on the factory firmware. Only once did it drop the connection and I could easily get it back through the router's web interface using the connect / disconnect button. To me this strongly suggests that there is a problem with the Gargoyle...

Update: I have now tried all that I can think of getting Gargoyle reliably to work on the TP-Link 1043nd to no avail. I have now reverted to factory firmware and will find out whether it is a hardware problem or Gargoyle problem. Following has been tried: - 5 metre network cable between modem and ro...

Just thought that I finally had the courage to manipulate the TP-Link firmware image to remove the boot loader, and re-flashed it using the Gargoyle web interface. After some moments of panic when I couldn't access it under normal router ip address, I tried the tplinklogin.net and that worked. So: a...

Am reading a lot about setting up DMZ, disabling NAT on the modem and the like. I am no networking expert, so not sure whether that might work or what security holes that'll open up. Any advise on this?

Hi pbix, thanks for your reply! Pretty sure its not the ISP for 2 reasons: (1) my old router/modem (Dynalink RTA1025W) works with no problem; (2) when I wire straight into modem after router failed, I got internet. PPPoA is the only thing that my ISP (Vodafone NZ over wholesale network) offers me if...

I need help reverting my WR1043ND v2.1 from Gargoyle 1.6 back to TP-Link firmware. I tried the firmware image for the router from TP-Link website, but Gargoyle web interface does not take it, saying that it has a boot loader. Naturally, TP-Link does not want / cannot help; I already asked their supp...

After another week and going through 3 more network cables, I believe there is still some problem with my set-up. Sometimes, router works flawless for a day or 2, but I never got more than this out of one network cable that connects the router WAN port to the modem. Any help will be appreciated!!! I...

Ah, good to know, cheers! That ticks item 3 largely off my list
