Howdy!
I have a Linksys WRT54G-TM router (the 8/32 meg version of the 54g) which is a fantastic bit of kit. It's flashed with DD-Wrt mega, and frankly is works quite well.
That said, I would like to move over to Gargoyle... any ideas if I can just click on the update firmware optinon in DD-Wrt mega, and point it at a gargoyle packet?
Or should I kill it first, then start from scratch?
Thanks!

I thought I would take a jump and try...
Downloaded the .trx file, renamed it to .bin (DD-WRT wont accept .trx)... and crossed my fingers and toes as I clicked on upload.....
Flashed, and it seems to work now! So much better than DD-WRT!

The WRT54G-TM is a GREAT router to experiment with.
It is very simple to flash via the GUI back and forth between
Gargoyle and DD-WRT. BUT - there is a BUT!
You have to flash less than 4 MB files!
You cannot flash the MEGA build from Gargoyle
Has to be Standard or Mini builds only
Once DD-WRT is flashed back on, you can re-flash the mega build
If you decide to go back - if not - welcome to Gargoyle!
