What are people's favorite routers for Gargoyle now (Nov 2022) and why? Our TP Link Archer 7 v2 has done well for years but unreliability times are just getting more frequent and lasting longer. It's time to replace and I'm looking for recommendations. (Single family detached house, 2 floors @1300 s...

what about 1.12.x

Umm, sorry but I don't understand the question. Do you mean did I try 1.12.x? No, I went from 1.11 to 1.13.

Upgraded to 1.13 interim release today. Did not preserve settings. Image used: gargoyle_1.13.x-ath79-generic-tplink_archer-c7-v2-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin, courtesy of @RomanHK web mirror of @ispyitail's torrent build. (ref https://www.gargoyle-router.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=12588&p=575...

Please understand the difference between ar71xx and ath79 before flashing, and do not preserve settings. https://openwrt.org/docs/techref/targets/ath79 says: ath79 is the successor of ar71xx. It's modernization under the hood, with the main goal to bring the code into a form that is acceptable for ...

Through testing and extended waiting to see if something unexpected broke I figured out that changing ` config quota 'quota_3' ` to something like ` config quota 'the_kids' ` works. This helps me when I edit the file manually through ssh but it's not exposed anywhere in the web UI. Is that something...

Upgraded to 1.11.0 today. As advised did not keep preferences. It took about a couple hours to get everything set properly but seems to be working fine now. There was a bit in the middle where DNS lookups from clients were failing. ` nslookup somedomain.ca ` from Windows failed with "connection...

I've got things back to where they were before, and learned that the location of the quota rules appears to be `/etc/config/firewall`. Edit that file and add something like the below is enough to have the rule show up in the web interface (`http://gateway.example.net/quotas.sh`) I don't know if that...

Those are the quota statuses, not the configuration for the quota itself. This commonly happens with multiple tabs/windows open. You unfortunately can’t recover them at this point. Urgh. Ok, thanks. That's bad news about multiple tabs. When working out quota adjustments I usually have a 2nd open to...

This evening I edited one of the existing quotas which applied to an IP range, to change the throttling rates. After I saved and applied changes all of the range rules disappeared, leaving only 2 ALL rules. I then rebooted the router, and now there are no quotas at all. This has happened 2 or 3 time...
