will PM you. cheers

anyone else. please let me know if you experience similar errors.

Edit:
Thanks to the testing by @nworbnhoj I have discovered that if you have a guest network enabled the plugin craps itself.
Will fix.

Copy it from the link in post 1 to the /www/i18n/...../English-EN/ folder
I can't remember the full path

Might as well edit the first page to say to copy the language file here "/www/i18n/English-EN/".

Works by copying the language file.

Thank you.

Yep will do.

So it's working OK for both of you?

I see one wifi network on the page, however my devices see a few more. Does Gargoyle lock into the strongest other network and ignores the others?

Depends on relative location. The signal may not be strong enough to be detected by the router

Maybe the fact that the other wireless network is the DIR-890L about 1m away sways the results.

The kids love the range of the DIR-890L as their access point. They even have a good stable connection a few houses away!

The Archer C7 (with Gargoyle) doesn't maintain full bars within the home. Then again, didn't try it with the stock firmware.
