Re: Wireless Bridge, can't get IP address
It wasn't "bad", however this is better in my opinion. And seeing as how I was already rewriting the code in an adjacent section I decided to keep going. That's great! I know from experience how good it feels when you complete a rewrite of your code and it actually works like it was meant...

Re: Wireless Bridge, can't get IP address
I switched the bridge mode to use a pseudobridge relay. It is more reliable and relies on less modules. This wiki doc explains it https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/recipes/relayclient In particular, the first image is particularly enlightening. Thanks Lantis, that explains it! Was the old pre-1.9 way so...

Re: Wireless Bridge, can't get IP address
Under 1.9.x you need to put the client gargoyle on a different subnet e.g. 192.168.2.1. This is different to previous versions. Ah, so I wasn't going mad! :shock: Thanks Lantis. I thought it was a typo that had crept in between versions. What was the thinking behind this and where can I read more a...

Re: Wireless Bridge, can't get IP address
Well setting my Gargoyle's IP to 192.168.1.99 gave me net access! 
Although when I look at my main router's DHCP page, I only see the Gargoyle, not the computer attached to it (which supposedly is at 192.168.1.11). How can I check if I'm on the same subnet?
Thanks again.

Wireless Bridge, can't get IP address
Hi, I am trying to set up my Netgear WNDR4300 (v1) as a wireless repeater/bridge. However I can't seem to connect to the internet or even to my primary router - when I attach a computer to the Gargoyle router (wired connection), it can't get a DHCP address. Here are my settings: http://i.imgur.com/0...

How to update firmware (TAR file)?
Hi, sorry if my first post here is a stupid one but... how do I update my firmware from a TAR file? I get the fact that BIN files are for flashing from the original firmware, but I couldn't find any info on TAR files... If it makes any difference, my router is a Netgear WNDR4300 and the firmware fil...
