Re: My archer C7 V2 is toasted

Do you mean like one of the Marvell Armada XP/370 Routers? That list doesn't provide that many choices that aren't older models IIUC.

Re: Archer C7 v2 rebooting every 12 seconds

The usb-ttl just arrived, oddly enough, i recovered it through TFTP using this guide.

Re: Archer C7 v2 rebooting every 12 seconds

Ok, I'll get one, it'll take a couple of weeks to arrive. But then, what will i do with it? Flashing / Recovery using the serial console?
How i am going to work my way out if its rebooting every 12 seconds.

Re: Wireless bridge/repeater in Archer C7 v2 1.10.0

Do you mean a workaround for this: Over ethernet, devices don't disconnnect from gargoyle; but gargoyle disconnects from the original ap(bad signal?). Anyways, seemingly it doesn't try to reconnect. There's been situations were there's not internet, and instead of rebooting gargoyle, I just re-save ...
