Gargoyle Forum

So, I've been messing around and I seem to have bricked my Gargoyle pocket router.... Anyone who could help me unbrick this thing?

It doesn't ping on it's default IP, but I can SSH and WinSCP into it.
Thank you

If you get to SSH via PuTTY (terminal), you can run this command and it will clear the configuration and the router will default: or
Factory Reset: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/tro ... tory_reset

rm -r /overlay/* && reboot -f

I tried it twice and restarted the router, still no ping. I'm gonna try the soft factory reset.

That's pretty weird. If you get to SSH, then the ping command from the same station must also work (within the LAN). See if you have a typo.

Do you get to the GUI?

So it just came back to life. I can access it through the web interface as normal. Version 1.12.0.

Under Firewall → Restrictions →Add new rule - 'Application protocol' is greyed out.
Do you perhaps know why?
