you can use connect via DHCP if you then turn off the DHCP server (which it sounds like you've done!) :) sounds good! Yep I turned of DHCP server so that the secondary router is not providing any IP addresses, it's all be assigned by Gargoyle. So router is still set to DHCP under Connection Type, e...

Sounds like you're still not quite on the right setting. You have Connect Via set to Disabled? Then you use one of the LAN ports as your input, and the rest of your LAN ports as outputs. You can then set the IP of the router normally in the GUI, which is what the router will ask the DHCP server for...

Correct. I do it all the time. Hi again, I have one follow-up question. The setup has worked, and Gargoyle is now seeing devices connected to secondary routers, and assigning IP's. Is there a way to then access those 2nd routers to change settings, like if I needed to change the password for the wi...

Great thanks, I will try it today and let you know if I have any issues. Thanks for the help.

You're putting each sub router in to a dumb switch mode. You want everyone on the same subnet. DHCP requests will flow through the network fine in this configuration. So on all my subsequent routers (subrouters) in the system, the ethernet cable should be plugged into one of the 4 LAN ports, and th...

Great thanks Ektus, I understand what you're saying. If I disable DHCP in all the other routers besides Gargoyle router, how will any devices obtain their own IP address and connect to the internet? And to confirm, you're not saying put the other routers into Static mode or PPPoE, but to completely ...

I believe so. Any wifi router that comes after the main Gargoyle router is just a typical low-end router set up in the most standard way. Subnet masks are 255.255.255.0 and they are all set to Dynamic IP addresses. So each additional router after Gargoyle router is assigning individual devices IP ad...

Hi everyone, I have a TP-Link TL-WR1043ND V2 successfully set up as the main Gargoyle router and is functioning fine. My setup is such that after the primary Gargoyle router, there are other wifi routers and ethernet hubs that supply internet to other small buildings. How can I set up the networks s...

Just a quick question on how to go about setting up Gargoyle. I have a large building that has multiple WIFI routers as well as wired ethernet connections to multiple rooms. Internet comes in to one router (will be the Gargoyle router), which then feeds an ethernet hub and provides wired ethernet to...
