Mesh Setup with Gargoyle

[cobra98]

There a lots of mesh Setup Guides for Openwrt and special firmware like
https://www.radiusdesk.com/
are there guides for Gargoyle too, so i could put all my router with gargoyle together in a mesh setup maybe?
This guide is the easiest one i have found for a 9-10 EUR router.

If the mesh type you want is supported by OpenWrt, then it can be configured in Gargoyle. However the GUI does not support it so you must do it manually.

Further, your device (wrt32x) does not support mesh.

For this i will use some TP-Link TL-WR841N/TP-Link TL-WR842N mix. But i am not sure about the server, if it has to be mesh too or can my wrt32x with gargoyle installed.

Did anybody created a mesh setup with gargoyle firmware?

With
iw list | grep "Supported interface modes" -A 9
i see some devices support "mesh point" i have.

Seems supported if "mesh point" shows up or?

I have merged your second topic into this one. There is no need for another thread on the same subject.

I separated wireless mesh from the gateway features. I use gargoyle for wired only direct to cable modem. Then I use orbi 3 pack mesh wired into my linksys wrt32x for mesh features. Works way better than putting it all on my archer c7v2.
