Gargole on Opewrt 2022

[adrusa]

I have WRT3200ACM that I was using for gargoyle, but has now stopped working with gargoyle. I really can not explain why, but whenever I install Gargoyle the router hangs, and does not give IP address to clients. However, Openwrt still works very well.

However, I need the bandwidth management and quota feature of gargoyle. Is there anyway I can install gargoyle on OpenWRT?

Thanks for helping.

What version?

[adrusa]

Thanks for your response. I have tried 1.12, 1.13 and 1.15.

What settings are you making that causes it to fail?

[adrusa]

Just the initial setup. Wifi, and IP address. I assign IP address in the 192.168. range and it stops giving out DHCP addresses. Thank you.

Did you want to provide a list of what settings you are actually making on what screens, and what your general network setup is? What other network devices do you have upstream? The fact that you can make initial settings means it works.
There's either something wrong with the way you're configuring it, or Gargoyle is making some incompatible settings. I can't figure out which unless you are more prescriptive.

To answer your initial question, no, you cannot "install Gargoyle" on an OpenWrt installation as a set of packages.

Is Gargoyle a fork of OpenWrt?
No. Gargoyle is a front-end/web interface for OpenWrt, not a fork. However, unlike X-Wrt or LuCI several kernel patches have been incorporated that make it impossible to install via the OpenWrt package system and still use all available functionality.
