disable access to gui on wireless

Post by eyesonly »

I've just succesfully installed Gargoyle on my tplink TL-WDR4300 1.8.
I've been running dd-wrt for 1 year now, but wifi was very unstable.
Hopefully this problem is fixed by running Gargoyle.

Only thing missing till now is a way to disable the gui access under wifi.
With dd-wrt there was an option to disable web gui management under wifi. By enabling this, I could only get into the gui with a wired connection. How can I achieve this under Gargoyle.

Thanks in advance.

I don't believe there is an option for this unless executed at the command line (not familiar with those commands).

Easier method:

You could assign static IPs to wired devices you want to allow access to web interface and then use IP tables to block access from DHCP assigned IPs.

Harder method:

You could create new interface and bridge it to br-lan interface. Then you would pass Wifi traffic throught this new wifi interface. After that you could just use iptables to block access from this interface.

None of this two can be done from Gargoyle GUI sadly :( .
