Zero issues.
Nice point, thank you. Especially - vertically router will fit better in designated area in my closet :-). Are there any wifi range comparison, as fas as any other opinions, of wndr3800 vs wdr3600 on gargoyle?

A see Gargoyle's download page - it is existing only for tp wdr3600v1, are there any information about wdr3600v2 ? I did not found anything... Is it safe to by wdr3600 for gargoyle without any specific information about version?

It doesn't look like a version 2 of the wdr3600 exists as tp-link's website only has firmware for v1

I have installed the V1 firmware to the 3600V2 for couple of weeks. So far, no problem found.

Are you sure? I have seen only 1.* revisions, may be you have V1.2, not a V2?

I'm thinking about WDR4300 or WDR3600 for be a Gateway with OpenVPN Server and Dual Wan for redundancy. What u guys think about?

Gargoyle has any plugin for DUAL WAN?

My only options are WDR4300 or WDR3600 :x

I need it for a small enterprise, just to manage.

I have bought initially netgear wndr3800 but i could not install gargoyle to it such as it was not a regular wndr3800, but wndr3800ch, currently not supporting by gargoyle. So, i have returned it back to seller and bought tplink wdr3600. Works perfectly, wifi range (2.4g) slightly better than on my old netgear wndr3700v2, when it was new.

+10 to above!! :D

I purchased a TP-Link WDR3600 and it dropped out regularly on 2.4ghz.

Then purchased a Netgear WNDR3800 off FleaBay, flashed it with Gargoyle 1.60 and system has been rock solid as for months now! Zero issues :lol:

The Netgear WINDR3800 for Gargoyle is raved about on Whirlpool forums (http://forums.whirlpool.net.au)
