since several years I'm using a TP-Link TL-WA850RE WLAN-Repeater with Gargoyle 1.8.1. I configured it as Wireless Bridge see appended configs. Worked very well. Then I decided to upgrade to 1.9.2. Everything worked but one tiny but urgent exception: unable to receive an ip address at the lan port. With a fixed address, a device is running smoothly attached to the lan port. I disabled the firewall with no result. Several configurations ended with no results: no dhcp inform packet is received by a device attached to the lan port. Converted back to 1.8.1.
Has anybody an idea, solution or comparable experience with this TP-Link device and Gargoyle?
I appended some configuration info’s of both versions.
Regards, cki61
