Re: 1.11.0 slowdown requiring reboot

There are a number of things that can cause problems with ACC. 1) Your ping target is not correct. Gargoyle tries to select a good one but sometimes it is fooled. From a Windows PC type "tracert <ping target> and post your results. 2) The ping time limit is too small for your link. If the ping ...

Re: v1.11 OpenVPN observations

I am using the version of OpenVPN which was included in the build. How do I tell which version it is? Running "OpenVPN --help" displays "Usage message not available". This is a NETGEAR WNDR3700v2 running 1.11.0 downloaded from the website last week. I see you are correct that it ...

v1.11 OpenVPN observations

Been looking at how OpenVPN is working in v1.11 and have run across a few things that puzzle me. In the below example the server LAN is 192.168.2.0 and the client LAN is 192.168.5.0 and we want these two to route both ways. There is an option in the Gargoyle interface to allow access to the LAN behi...

Re: Forwarding other protocols than TCP/UDP

Gargoyle supports OpenVPN which I use pretty extensively. It uses UDP and works well. You can setup your router itself to be the VPN server and then connect to you LAN from anywhere in the world. I recommend this approach and it needs no port forwarding setup. I Googled PPTP VPN and found this Wiki....

Re: Version 1.11.0 : Based on OpenWrt 18.06

How can I get PPTP VPN connection working in Gargoyle? Unless I use DMZ to my IP (which I don't want as I don't want people to access all ports) it won't let me connect. I suspect this is because PPTP uses GRE instead of TCP/UDP, but I'm not sure how to forward that (preferably through interface). ...

v1.11 OpenVPN plugin does not work

On 8MB Flash routers OpenVPN must be install via plugin. After installing v1.11 on my 1043ND v3 router I inserted a flash drive and made it my plugin root. I then installed the OpenVPN plugin. However, OpenVPN will not enable. Looking at logread I see: hu Feb 21 19:05:59 2019 daemon.err uhttpd[2905]...

Re: Version 1.10.0 : New stable version with critical security fixes

I have put it on TL-1043ND v3 and have the following observations. 1) Your router has 8Meg of flash. The 1.11 release for all 8Meg routers is stripped of many features. You can recover these features if you install a flash drive in your USB port. You then have to copy the specific plugins you want a...

Re: Default QoS Rules Contest **Complete**

I have done some testing recently and have come to the opinion that a 128 byte rule and a fast class are also beneficial for the download direction. This becomes evident when both upload and download directions are simultaneously saturated. Without this class ACC if enable will tend latch-up at its ...
