Choosing between several builds for WNDR4300

Post by marcusp »

Hello,

I've searched in the forum but I can't find what's the difference between these builds:
gargoyle_1.14.0-ath79-nand-netgear_wndr4300-squashfs-factory.img
gargoyle_1.14.0-ath79-nand-netgear_wndr4300sw-squashfs-factory.img
gargoyle_1.14.0-ath79-nand-netgear_wndr4300tn-squashfs-factory.img

what do these letters mean please ?

You should check the OpenWrt device page for your device.

SW = SureWest, a hardware variant distributed by a Californian ISP
TN = Telenet, a hardware variant distributed by a Belgian ISP

It is most likely you have the generic variant.

By the way, you should really load the 1.15.x version instead.

Hello Santis,
I would just like to know if the latest beta of the v1.15 is stable enough for an everyday use ? That's for the main router of my home.

Thanks in advance

I can’t give you any guarantees of course, but I’ve had a number of users test and are happy. I think it’s a good candidate!

I’ve been running it as my main router for 12 months and I work from home so I need stability. Just a personal anecdote.
