Which of these linksys Routers runs best with wifi and gargoyle?
Is WRT32x already supported?
And besides from google where can i find the link to the correct name in downloads?
I think i found out
WRT1200AC = armada-385-linksys-caiman.dts
WRT1900ACS = shelby
WRT3200ACM = rango
WRT32X = venom (not found in downloads)
I guess in directory Marvel Armada?
Are all safe to install and wifi all fast & stable now compared to openwrt (the same?)
I have an AC1750 and thinking of upgrading to one of them.
Anybody can help?

All supported fully as of 1.11.x. I would recommend starting there (RC5).

The code name mapping sounds about right, but with 1.11.x, the code names are no more, so it is much simpler to find

Wifi is on par with Openwrt. The driver has some incompatibilities with certain chipsets.

Hmm as far as i can see only 1.10 to download, where is 1.11?
Which from the ROuters you would recommend best performance then AC1750?
I found it here
http://lantisproject.com/gargoyle_1.11.x_rc5/
but i guess it is not recommended to update from 1.10 for stable usage or?

They're all good routers. Like i said in my first reply, they have incompatibilities with some wifi chipsets, which you should do your own research about.
For example, the ESP line of devices (usually found in IoT or smart devices e.g. light bulbs).

If you had these devices, i would go elsewhere.

1.10.0 is very out of date and i wouldn't recommend it any longer.
There will be no further development on it either.
1.11.x is the future.

Hmm why is the version not in download section?
http://lantisproject.com/gargoyle_1.11.x_rc5/
is the one you recommend?
Or this?

I have a TP-Link Archer C7 v2 where i need to keep the configuration or DHCP table. Can i just update too?
Also one TP-Link TL-WR1043N/ND v2,
all have 1.10 installed for now, if possible i would just try to update. If wifi more stable with this version?

I read this about RC5 having wifi drops
viewtopic.php?f=14&t=11829
so i am not sure to update or not and which version!
To keep the settings or way to export / import them would be cool. (Webcam/DHCP/Port Forward settings)

RC5 is the latest. The second link you posted is to RC1.

You can try upgrading and preserving settings, but I would strongly recommend against doing so. We are talking about kernel and program updates over 2 years newer (and more). The risk of incompatibility is very high.

You can manually backup and restore your DHCP settings, webcam should be ok and port forward is probably ok too, but I would re-enter that from scratch to be safe.

I can’t provide support for migrated configurations from 1.10.x to 1.11.x. The number of things that could go wrong is too high for me. It would take me too long to figure out how to fix everyone’s stuff.

In which files is the dhcp table, dynamic ip safed?
I would try to copy most of them by scp and recopy them after upgrade.
Would be nice to have a least the ip settings like the old one,
else i would have to do it with every Router direct instead of teleworking

\etc\hosts and \etc\ethers

If you open the backup file in 7zip you can open all the files and see the contents
