Gargoyle Forum

Hi,

I've been using Gargoyle for several years and have never had any issues. However, since the past couple of weeks, I'm facing a peculiar problem.

I have a TPlink wdr4300 runnning gargyole 1.12 that's connected to an adsl modem on the Wan port. I randomly loose access to the wan port and can't even ping the router. The internet light remains on, on the router. I have changed the modem, ethernet cable as well tried with another wdr3400 router that I have, but the problem persists. I need to physically turn off & on the router several times for it to start working again and then randomly the problem will reoccur. I have tried setting a static IP too but that hasn't helped.

Any idea what could be causing this? Thanks in advance.

and can't even ping the router.

Tell us more about this

I am noticing similar issues in my setup also. I am seeing periodic disconnect from the internet on my PC. PC connected to a switch connected to router linksys32x connect to fiber ONT. The ISP says no issues on their end.

Is there something that gargoyle can do to help diagnos/log the outages?

My linksys32x is rock solid

The router uptime is still there but it is not connected or sending packets to wan. Does gargoyle provide anything to track that?

I looked in conntrack and other areas to no avail.

I ask if you use PPPoE?

I know there are problems with this protocol and it accidentally disconnects and no longer connects.

No ppoe. I was evaluating a fiber provider but it is disconnecting more than comcast. I wanted to get away from comcast but cannot.

Then again maybe the connection issues were down stream from gargoyle.
