TOR doesn't work. WHY?

[evolisat]

I have a main modem router (fastweb italy) connect at phone line, is connected to this one a switch and is connected to this one my tplinkwr1043nd router with gargoyle and tor plugin (using the wan port with an Ethernet cable). At Lan Port labeled 1, I connected my laptop. So when I surf on the web is everything ok, but when i use the onion address it doesn't work. I try with gargoyle 1.5.10 and 1.5.9 and tor preinstalled, i configured Tor client with hidden service only and connect via Tor relay. I don't touch tor server. Also I try restart tor through putty ssh to my router typing: /etc/init.d/tor restart. But when i check onion address visiting https://check.torproject.org/ appears always the same message "Sorry. You are not using Tor".
P.S. I use un usb pen drive 512MB (120MB on linux swap and the rest formatted in fat32), in fact in the status voice Gargoyle use the main memory and the swap memory.
Please help me, I'm desperate

In the future DO NOT PM me and post in the forum at the exact same time. Bombarding me with requests from multiple directions at the same time is a pet peeve of mine.

However, I may be able to help. Can you post a screenshot of your tor configuration screen? Also, if you ssh into your router and run "ps" do you see tor running? Finally, if you could post the output of "iptables -t nat -L", that would be very helpful.

You've selected hidden service access only, so if you visit the torcheck site (which is not a hidden service), the request won't go through tor and it will report that you are not using tor.

Which hidden service are you trying to access? A large number of hidden service sites have gone down recently due to legal troubles even though Tor continues to function properly. Try connecting to TorDir: http://dppmfxaacucguzpc.onion/ which I know is still up and running (just checked).

So If I understand well, my router and tor configuration is ok? The only problem is the check page.
So in my router Tor plugin works correctly?
I will try
thanks for now

you're the best
