Help with install on D-Link DIR-615 rev C1

[uiotewre]

I have been running Gargoyle for a few hours, and I am very impressed. Simple, clean interface, not muddled with a bunch of garbage I don't need like DD-WRT, and the connection feels snappier than it was with DD-WRT, and more importantly, so far it is completely stable.

A few questions:

With DD-WRT, the firmware was customized to run the router at 21dBm, which was the maximum for the Atheros chipset. I changed this setting in Gargoyle, but how can I check if it's set at that?

Secondly, the signal is not as strong as it was with DD-WRT. Is it using the correct "Antenna Chain" for my router? With DD-WRT it was 1+3, how can I check that as well?

Finally, how can I get into the console (Aside from using the TTL port)? It has SSH support, but I haven't been able to Telnet into it. Is it different with SSH?

Thanks

ssh into the router and type iwinfo

From linux open a terminal and type "ssh root@192.168.1.1"
