Mi Router 4A Gigabit

Post by wilson_0031 »

Hello people! Since 2016 I have always used Gargoyle on my TP-Link router. However, I recently acquired the Xiaomi router, the Mi Router 4A Gigabit, what I didn't like about it is that it is only available in Chinese in the web version!
So far I haven't found any version of Gargoyle available for this router. Are you developers interested in creating a version of Gargoyle for this device?

I'm interested in someone else doing it and submitting it as a patch to me ;)

There's no reason it can't be supported. I'm largely against adding targets to gain a single device so I would prefer the device list is enumerated and all sufficiently popular and sized devices of the same target (mt76x8) are also included.

I entered your site, but you only have version 1.11 firmware, correct? In addition, the device that comes closest to this mine, seems to be the mt7621-mir3g!

Maybe you misunderstand.
I'm not saying there is existing support, i'm saying that if someone was interested in having support, they might do the work and submit it as a patch for me to review here: https://github.com/ericpaulbishop/gargoyle

Now I understand. Thank you very much for the explanation. And I hope that something with more knowledge than mine can send this patch for you to do the review!
