I see this was accepted but don't see a specific build for this at all. Can someone please let me know which firmware to download for this specific unit.

That only means that I did a one off custom build.
It is now severely out of date.

Start by doing a default build first

If that works well then do a custom build

This will determine if the problem is the build environment or your custom settings.

Still getting some grief trying to compile. Did

make clean
make cleanup
make distclean

make custom

TARGET SYSTEM => Ralink RT288x/RT3xxx
SUB TARGET => RT3x5x/RT5350
TARGET PROFILE => Asus RT-N13U

Left all other options alone. This is error I get back

That’s a pretty standard error when doing custom builds. Means the config is borked.

For your own sanity, please try as ispyisail suggests.
Just build a regular ar71xx target and see if it completes.
Then I will give you my method of doing custom builds

Well I was able to get a few different default builds to successfully complete I’m going to assume you were going to suggest copying that config file and running make custom to open it up and make changes to TARGET etc

Sort of.

Make custom and configure your build.
Save the config when prompted to do so.
Immediately kill the build and enter the custom-src directory.
Copy the .config file to a new target and make that


Also be sure you are selecting the minimum Gargoyle packages in the make custom menu

Successful build and flash still need to test though Thank you so much gentleman. Followed your instructions had a few hiccups but reached the end goal. I appreciate all the help. This was my first custom build and will not be the last. Glad I took the time to figure this out. Was not nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be. Now if I could only get gargoyle going on my DIR-862l. Which is only supported currently by dd-wrt but is very similar to Archer C7 v2

I’m glad you got a successful build done :)

Any further questions let us know we can hopefully guide you in the right direction
