Re: 40MHZ ?

Ok, understood. I'd like to try this and see if it is my current problem. I assume this only needs to be set at the router end.

Please excuse my lack of familiarity with the system .. what is the best way to test, and later to permanently implement this change if I so chose?

40MHZ ?

I have an older TP-LINK Archer C7 v5 running gargoyle 1.12.0 I'd like to get a wifi connection running across 40mhs on 2.4G. This connection is to a ubiquiti bullet M2. IT seems as though the router seems to refuse to go into 40MHZ mode. It runs perfectly fine in 20MHz. I have eliminated noise on ad...

Re: wrt54g v2

I wanted to share a quick update for anyone interested. This project was a major fail :( I successfully flashed the original firmware from linksys and got the router working. Then I flashed 1.4.7 and it worked as a router. however, when setting it up as any sort of repeater it failed becasue apparen...

Re: wrt54g v2

Ok, I'll try it out and see if this dinosaur has some life left in it.

By the way, it was a nightmare finding the original OEM firmware for the wrt54. But it is still floating around.

Re: wrt54g v2

Yes, I realize that . I'm in a pinch and need a free wifi extender for one remote client just a bit too far for the ap router . It won't be publically accessible. I did get it working on 1.4, so I'll try 1.6 and see if it still works Which image of 1.6 would you suggest for a wrt54g V2 ? Any tips on...

wrt54g v2

Hi Guys, I am trying to resurrect a very old wrt54G v2 router to use as a repeater. Which firmware is compatible to use? I have it set back to factory firmware from linksys right now.

Re: Version 1.14.0: Based on OpenWrt 22.03

Upgrade questions:

1. I am have an older TP-Link router running 1.12.0 that should really upgrade. Do I need to 1.13 and then 1.14 as separate upgrades, or is it safe just to apply 1.14

2. For this 2 level upgrade, is it safe to keep configs or do i need to configure from scratch?

thanks!

Re: Hard set ethernet port speed

The link runs reliably with no errors at 10MBPS and occasioanlly it will auto negotiate for 100 at startup, for a very short time, then falls back to 10. I was hoping to hard set both ends to 100 full and disable the auto negotiate. This is a link between two routers, across a buried ethernet cable ...
