I have a lovely WRT54G v2. I have installed Gargoyle on it and it worked fine in AP mode. I reconfigured it as a wireless bridge mode, following the instructions, but I can now not connect to it. I have tried the IP address I told it to be, and it does not respond (router and computer are on the same subnet).
I would like to now reset all configuration to the default settings. I have tried a 30-30-30 but that does not seem to have any impact. Is there a description somewhere of how to do such a reset?
I have looked through the documentation and I do not see it.
Thanks!

Follow the steps there
flash a dd-wrt image - do a couple of resets via the GUI or a
30-30-30 reset once dd-wrt is loaded
re-flash the
gargoyle_1.3.8-wrt54g-squashfs.bin
file from the downloads section via the dd-wrt web gui

Re: reseting a router to default settings
So it sounds like there is no way to get back to default settings within Gargoyle. Instead I need to load a different firmware (e.g. DD-WRT), clearing everything out, and then reload gargoyle.

Re: reseting a router to default settings
Correct
Because, the reset button is a programmed feature
Gargoyle does not have the reset button programmed in the code
Only a few Atheros devices have that programming built in
DD-WRT has reset programming, as well as the stock Linksys firmware
That's actually DD-WRT's recommended fresh re-configuring also:
Flash manufacturer firmware back on device, then re-flash DD-WRT
