Gargoyle Forum

I could never get the 2.1 hardware with the latest gargoyle version to work.

Have currently implemented the tagging manually on a 1.6.2 version of gargoyle on the 1.8v hardware.

Is rock solid though.

So are there any plans of implementing VLAN IDs anytime soon? I have a friend with an iPrimus connection that needs VLAN ID 100 and was planning to use Gargoyle

Hi all

I have a WNDR3700v4 running 1.9.0 Gargoyle.

In NZ, and got Vodafone FibreX (1G over cable). It required VLAN10 and made the network file changes and got it all working.

The only issue is performance, I'm only getting 50MB/s throughput. Any ideas or suggestions?

50MegaBYTES per second?
You won't get much faster than that without heftier hardware due to no hardware acceleration in third party firmware.

If you aren't overly attached to Gargoyle, LEDE has some user tested fast pathing in the forums you could try, which may get you closer to line speed.

Here is my config for a TL-WR841ND (v8) on Gargoyle 1.9.1 (don't like the GUI on the newer versions). I'm with Spark (NZ). On the Huawei router provided by Spark, it's preconfigured to use PPPoE so I tried to do the same on Gargoyle, but don't know if that is strictly required.

Essentially I only changed a line under 'wan' to 'eth0.10' and added the section at the end:

config switch_vlan
option device 'switch0'
option vlan '10'
option ports '0t 5t'


Here is the content of the file /etc/config/network:

1) If it uses PPPoE, then you should use PPPoE. There is a GUI in Gargoyle you can use to set it.
2) You have posted in the wrong thread, please create another thread for your question if you still need help.

I used the GUI to configure the PPPoE first, then edited /etc/config/network.

It's working for me on the TL-WR841ND. Going to try and configure TL-WDR4300 for VLAN 10 now.

BTW, am getting 27Mb/s download speed, and 14Mb/s Upload.
