Support for Buffalo WZR-600DHP2

Post by alediniz »

First sorry for poor English, my main language is Portuguese. What is the possibility of support for Buffalo WZR-600DHP2 router? I am completely newbie, but I found these two links that may help to develop.

https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots ... x/generic/
http://www57.atwiki.jp/ddwrt_openwrt/pages/38.html (In Japanese but it is understood using Google Translator)

I think the trunk builds can also be used in the development to other Buffalo, Asus and Netgear models.

I'm now using DD-WRT on WZR-600DHP2, but I'm Gargoyle firmware enthusiast. I've used for many years in the old TP-Link WR1043ND. Thank you very much.

The Buffalo WZR-600DHP with original firmware can be flashed with:

gargoyle_1.7.1-ar71xx-generic-wzr-600dhp-squashfs-factory.bin

from the Gargoyle Download page.

However you have a Buffalo WZR-600DHP2

The OpenWrt page for the Buffalo WZR-600DHP mentions the Version/Model C0B2 - I wonder if this is what you have???

Gargoyle Support comes at some point after OpenWrt support.

There does not appear to be any recent progress towards OpenWrt support

https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=47372

So no time soon I would guess :-(

^ agree with the above post.

That being said, there seems to be DD-WRT support for it. Buffalo just posted (6/30/15) a DD-WRT ugprade file/instructions in the download tab. (there's two firmwares, regular and professional (DD-WRT)):

QoS Tip: Don't complicate your QoS settings. Gargoyle evenly splits available bandwidth between active devices as needed. Just delete all your classification rules and leave only one normal service class and you're done. No more arguing over bandwidth.
