Gargoyle Forum

Hello all,

I've had Gargoyle 1.5.0 installed for a couple of months on my 1043ND. I just wanted it to use VLANs. It appears that my wifi performance is not even half as good as on the stock firmware, at least for me.

I really just want to go back to stock, but I'm afraid I will break it. How can I? Does this still work: http://www.gargoyle-router.com/wiki/dok ... l_firmware ?

I would really just like to get some confirmation. If i connect it to my laptop via ethernet, and I flash that file, I'll be fine without any trouble?

Thanks.

works for me

Anyhow stock FW hangs pretty often, so I'm pretty sure you'll return back to any wrt firmware back.
About wifi performance, I also had some issue with older releases, check your syslog for wifi errors and try to search over openwrt forum. It's a matter of changing some value in wireless config file. That should solve your problem

You can revert back with this method as far as I know... It worked for me.

1. From Windows, you'll need pscp.exe and putty.exe. Both can be downloaded here:

2. Download the appropriate firmware for your router. (Example: http://www.tp-link.com/en/support/downl ... n=V1#tbl_j )

3. Copy pscp.exe, putty.exe, and the firmware all to one folder for simplicity.

4. Open up a command prompt, CD to the directory with those files previously listed, then type:
pscp -scp <firmware-filename.bin> root@192.168.1.1:/tmp

5. Enter the router's admin password when prompted. The file should then copy the firmware file to the /tmp directory on your router.

6. Run putty.exe, then enter in your router's IP and connect via SSH.

7. Type in: cd /tmp

8. Type in: mtd -r write <firmware-filename.bin> firmware

9. The router will load the new firmware and reboot... Good Luck!

This is how I went back to the stock firmware on my TP-Link TL-WR841N when I had OpenWRT.

I think that this information is the best.
