I have been using my Buffalo wzr-hp-g300nh2 for many years now, it's finally starting to choke and I just spent a little over $100 on a new Nighthawk r7500v2 router, thinking it would be great to use with Gargoyle. I must have misread that it was supported, but finding that its a little sketchy.
Will it ever be supported fully? Seems the 5hz wifi radio is the biggest problem, but I'm not even finding a gargoyle firmware for it. Of course, it has been a long time since I have to flash a factory device so I could be easily missing something.
What is the currently recommended router to work with Gargoyle?
Is it the TP-Link Archer C7 v2 in the shop, or is there something better?
The Internet in my area can only reach speeds of 100mb at the moment, with 600mb coming soon. I would like to get a router that will handle those speeds in the future.
Thank you.

Re: Best Recommended Router for Gargoyle use
To hit 600mb you're going to have to open up your wallet about twice as much.
Look at the wrt1900acs

Re: Best Recommended Router for Gargoyle use
Thanks, Lantis.
wrt1900acs on Amazon is only $149.99.
Not much more than I just paid for the Nighthawk r7500v2.
This router was $178-35( "20OFFE3" (Exp 6/17)) = $143

wrt1900acs:
https://www.amazon.com/Linksys-AC1900-S ... B014MIBLSA
So not only is this router close to what I paid, it works much better with Gargoyle?
So I currently have in possession the Nighthawk, is it safe to say Gargoyle will not have full support for it in the near future?
Thank you,
Trey
