LinkSys EA6100

Post by sbogolub »

Hello.

I have a Linksys EA6100 router. I live in an area not connected to any traditional internet providers and am therefore using Satellite Internet which has a 50GB per month data cap.

There are 5 people in the home using internet, each with different data allotment needs. I am hoping to use the router to view and throttle data usage per person.

I can't find my current product in your list of supported hardware. I found it here, but do not know what the details mean: http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/start

Can I install custom firmware on this and have it work? If it is unknown, what instructions would you recommend I follow. Do I need a new router?

Thanks for your help,

Steve

Unfortunately your router is not currently supported by OpenWRT, or as a result, Gargoyle.

I do however highly recommend Gargoyle in your circumstances.

I can also recommend the TL-WDR3600 if you are inclined to purchase another router.
Can you help someone else get Gargoyle up and running?
