Yup, hardware rev 1.8, same as my one at home.
Not really willing to say it's a hardware issue coz it works fine when I flash back to standard TP-Link firmware :-/

I would add that not only do I sell these models, these are what I use in my own network (with Gargoyle installed). I'm a big fan of
eating my own dogfood.
However... there might be a bug somewhere that only pops up under some unusual set of circumstances. These are always the worst bugs to deal with because if I can't reproduce a bug, it's REALLY hard to fix it.
One thing I note is that your output of "ip addr" shown above is showing the wan interface (eth0.2) with the proper IP:
Code: Select all
4: eth0.2@eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP
link/ether 90:f6:52:a4:db:b7 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 192.168.253.209/24 brd 192.168.253.255 scope global eth0.2
Can you post the output of this command when it isn't working, and also the list of processes running (run ps).
Also, see what happens if you run "/etc/init.d/network restart" -- does that bring up the wan? What output do you get?

Thanks Eric, really appreciate you weighing in on this.
I've unfortunately left it in the office (Had to go home early yesterday) but will do-so on Monday and post back.
Thanks again!

I can confirm this is working by downloading:
http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/ ... actory.bin
Downloaded it today, 20120808
However I can't install Gargoyle because I get these errors when manually installing on top of OpenWRT:
Package gargoyle-firewall-util version 1.2.0-1 has no valid architecture, ignoring.
Package gargoyle version 1.2.0-6 has no valid architecture, ignoring.
Any ideas why?

Anybody got ideas on why I can't do the manual install? It's a real bummer because the new OpenWRT certainly seems to have fixed the WAN-port issue, but I just can't get the actual Gargoyle packages on it now

Alternatively would it be possible to get this patch merged in the next build?
