Gargoyle Forum

Edit: DoesItMatter beat me to it :) Make sure you get 3.3V (VERY IMPORTANT) serial cable (something like Nokia CA-42 usb to serial). There's a fairly lengthy warning on your router's wiki page about messing the voltages up. I hope you won't get discouraged by this, because it's really not that hard....

Thank you again for your great compiling job. I managed to install your firmware. It wouldn't work directly from dd-wrt (bricked router), so I had to resort to serial.

It doesn't have any kind of web GUI bundled with it, so I was stuck with silly SSH and Linux syntax. I soon lost my mind, because I never use...

In this thread you're both talking about moving from dd-wrt to openwrt first and than installing Gargoyle. Flashing openwrt is slightly too confusing for me right now and ...
