NetGear WNDR3400v1 support?

[snickell]

I have an old WNDR3400v1 lying around, do you think I can use Gargoyle with it?

OpenWrt supports the WNDR3400v1 (e.g. http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/ ... uashfs.chk).

Which image do I flash if I'd like to try? Or do I need to install openwrt and use kamikaze?

I'm not using the router otherwise, so its ok with me if it gets bricked

thanks!

Probably supportable, but no image produced.
You can custom compile for your router.

Its looking like profile/targets for the wndr3400 aren't in the gargoyle fork of openwrt, and there's some custom patches openwrt is applying, including some major architectural revisions. What version of openwrt is gargoyle synced with currently?

It seems like it might be easier to start with trunk openwrt, and add gargoyle using kamikaze?

[Lantis]

If you can find some old gargoyle files that will let you do that?

Gargoyle 1.9.1 is synced with latest Openwrt 15.05.1

I'm confused, in openwrt 15.0.5 source code in linux/brcm47xx/image/Makefile I see support/config for wndr3400 under subtarget mips74k , but I don't see an equivalent file in Gargoyle, even though its based on openwrt 15.0.5.

How do I do the custom config for gargoyle to compile for my device?

I must be doing something very wrong

[snickell]

With openwrt source, I can "make menuconfig" and configure my device settings, which generates the files found in gargoyle source like ./targets/brcm47xx/profiles/default/config . The target config files say "openwrt configuration do not edit" at the top.... but I cannot do "make menuconfig" in gargoyle (make target not found).

How can I regenerate the target configs from openwrt, so gargoyle will build for my target?

Maybe I do make menuconfig in openwrt 15.0.5 and copy the files manually into the gargoyle /targets/brcm47xx/* source tree?

We don't produce an image for every single router.
If it's supported on openwrt it's likely you can custom compile for gargoyle.

Clone the gargoyle source and do a make custom, which will give you the familiar openwrt menu.
Configure for your router as before, and Also go to administration and select Gargoyle (and any other plugins you want, being mindful of size).

Save and exit, then hault the build and take your generated .config and create a new target similar to the others that are already present.


Note, that your target may already exist, and you simply need to add your routers name to the images file in that target.
