Will the latest version 1.12 work on my WRT1200AC V1?

Post by Spassfleisch »

I'm brand new to gargoyle, and somewhat new to flashed routers.

The other day I flashed my WRT1200AC v1 from factory to Gargoyle 1.10. I went for the older version because some users reported that 1.12 wasn't working for them.

But then I read elsewhere that 1.12 does work on my router. I'm willing to give it a go-- but is there a simple way to upgrade from 1.10? Maybe a wget from the command line, followed by a power cycle? Do I need to flash back to the stock firmware partition and do a full download? Either way, it's okay if I wipe out settings. I just want to get the latest version installed without bricking my router :)

Hi,

Yes i'd recommend 1.12 for your router.
You can just download the sysupgrade file in a web browser from the Downloads page (https://www.gargoyle-router.com/download.php).
Your router should be this one:
https://www.gargoyle-router.com/downloa ... pgrade.bin

You then go to the System -> Upgrade page in the Gargoyle GUI, upload the file and press upgrade.
When going from 1.10 to 1.12, please do not preserve settings as they will be incompatible.
http://lantisproject.com/downloads/gargoyle_ispyisail.php for the latest releases
Please be respectful when posting. I do this in my free time on a volunteer basis.
