Re: 1km point to point link query

The link distance is 1km. Do I need to adjust any wireless timing parameters? How can I do that at the command line? http://www.tp-link.com/en/products/details/?model=TL-WA5210G#fea talks about "Distance Adjustment for long range transmission, up to 50km". Obviously I will not be using the...

Wifi bandwidth measurement

I would like to be able to download a fake 10MB (or whatever) file from my router to measure the speed of my wifi link. (Not I do not have USB) Is there any Gargoyle router specific URL which will give me (for example) a file containing the firmware image? Or something else which is big? Note that I...

Re: 1km point to point link query

I found this cisco discussion about antennas, and there is an attached spreadsheet doing distance calculations. Looks good.

D-link D-615 version E4

I would like to flash this with Gargoyle. I have tried downloading and flashing 1.5.10 dir-615-e4 factory but get an error when I use the normal D-link console to upgrade. The uploaded firmware file may not be correct. You may have uploaded a file that is not intended for this Gateway, or the upload...

Re: What happens when quota exceeded?

You can use the Quota system to change the QoS Class of the over-quota PC. Usually the bandwidth is reduced and the user will see slower or no connection to the internet but this part is configurable by you. Actually it depends.

Re: Can I use Gargoyle as my DNS server with an /etc/hosts f

If you were actually using Gargoyle, I think you would have answered the questions you are asking yourself. 1) Gargoyle does this by default I actually use Gargoyle (and love it), but I do not know how to configure this.
