Gargoyle Forum

Hi, can you add the Meraki MR12 to the router list as it's now officially supported by Openwrt.Thanks.

I attempted to install the version for the WNR612 V2...both the august entry as well as the july version from megaupload. In both cases the factory gui said "Firmware upgrade failed. Please check your file." Is there something additional that needs to occur? Is it only suitable for being installed via tftp? Do I need to be using the .bin or the .img?

*update* OpenWRT Chaos Calmer 15.05.1 img file loaded fine and applied so seems to be something off with the .img. Upgrading to Gargoyle via the .bin file from Openwrt worked as expected except I told it to keep settings and when it asked me to login the password had been reset to "password" instead of keeping the one previously entered. Took a few minutes to figure out what it reset to.

1. Some OEM firmwares are locked down and won't allow our images to be flashed. Openwrt has solved this problem in some cases in a later version, and this won't be an issue for gargoyle in the future.

2. You should never preserve setttings when switching to or from openwrt. I recommend you reflash again without settings preserved.

Would a factory reset be sufficient or a total reflash is required? If it's potentially that hosed then isn't using it to flash to the next firmware just as dangerous?

Factory rese t will probably be fine.

You may have gotten lucky *shrug*.
