"Cli flashing" due to no webinterface?

Post by danielpublic »

First of all, Thank you for a great piece of GPL software!
Now, to make a short question a long story.

I have had Gargoyle installed since the v.1.0.0 release and might have upgraded to v.1.1.6 and the only trouble I have had, was that one day I could not access the webinterface. But the router did its job!

Yesterday I thought I'd upgrade Gargoyle, but since I cant access the webinterface I tried to flash the router with (a)tftp. But, I guess Im getting to old and slow to push 'enter' when 'sudo ping -f 192.168.1.1' told me to.

tl;dr - Question:
Is it possible to flash my wrt54GL through CLI, something similiar to DD-wrt?

Cheers!

Try that method to recover.

If you want to upgrade, try to ugprade to Gargoyle 1.2.5

The 1.3.x series of Gargoyle does take a bit more memory.

Try 1.2.5 and see how that works for you first, before trying 1.3.9
:twisted: Soylent Green Is People! :twisted:
2x Asus RT-N16 = Asus 3.0.0.4.374.43 Merlin
2x Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH V1 A0D0 = Gargoyle 1.9.x / LEDE 17.01.x
2x Engenius - ESR900 Stock 1.4.0 / OpenWRT Trunk 49400

First of all, Thank you most kindly, Good Sir for your reply.
Without it, I would not even have dared to attempt what I had in mind last night, when I was digging around and found doupgrade.sh or the like.

But since I found finally found THIS, through the dd-wrt link you Sir provided, as well as djpero there and one of our (well one of mine thats for sure) favourite GPL heros Eric and well, then at last the capital this mentioned above. But alas, thats tomo.. later today apparently.. after Ive gotten some shuteyes. Oh, how time does wonders with ones patience! :lol:
