Thanks for this new version but before flashing my Netgear WNDR4300 I'd like to know what are the differences between ?
gargoyle_1.14.0-ath79-nand-netgear_wndr4300-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
gargoyle_1.14.0-ath79-nand-netgear_wndr4300sw-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
gargoyle_1.14.0-ath79-nand-netgear_wndr4300tn-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
These differences were not present in previous firmwares.
Thanks in advance
Version 1.14.0: Based on OpenWrt 22.03

They are for specific variants of the device which require different headers to accept the upgrade.
SW = SureWest Zips
TN = Telenet ISP

Re: Version 1.14.0: Based on OpenWrt 22.03
OK thanks for this explanation, I'll try this new version asap !
Re: Version 1.14.0: Based on OpenWrt 22.03
I have test version 1.15 installed on an x86. Should I "upgrade" or "downgrade" to official 1.14? Is there any advantage or drawbacks? Can I preserve settings from 1.15 to 1.14? Thanks.
Re: Version 1.14.0: Based on OpenWrt 22.03
No real advantage or disadvantages.
Configs will be compatible between the two.

Re: Version 1.14.0: Based on OpenWrt 22.03
Trying to install on my old TL-WR1043ND V1 without preserving settings failed badly. The router ran into a boot loop, had to connect the serial cable to recover. Flashed back to 1.13.0, got back into the GUI and tried again (immediately after setting the password). Upload of the 1.14.0 sysupgrade file went okay,
Serial Console Shows "Out of memory: Kill process xxx" And kills a bunch of processes. Finally, after a couple minutes it reboots and is back in 1.13.0 with my previously set password.
Attach USB drive, format as extroot with swap. Enable swap from the serial console (swapon -a). Retry firmware upgrade.
After three minutes, runs out if memory, starts killing processes and reboots. SysLED never stops blinking.
At this point, 1.14.0 is active, but fails to boot fully.
Trying something else: During boot, after the USB drive is mounted, issue a "swapon -a" from the serial console.
Runs into critical medium error on block device, Read error on swap device, and reboots.
df reports /dev/root with 6144 1k-blocks, 0% free
Entering failsafe mode, mount_root fails with missing /etc/config/fstab and bails out with "using temporary tmpfs overlay"
I'll be giving up for now, flashing back to 1.13.0

Re: Version 1.14.0: Based on OpenWrt 22.03
Thanks for reporting.
Realistically, 32MB RAM devices are unsupportable moving forward, and this release was always going to be borderline.
You may need to stay with 1.13

Re: Version 1.14.0: Based on OpenWrt 22.03
Too bad 
The router is doing AP duty and I was hoping to activate the guest network to improve coverage. And that functionality has just become available in 1.14.
Some more info. To me, ot looks like there should still be a couple MB free once it crashes. What does cause the memory overrun anyway?

Re: Version 1.14.0: Based on OpenWrt 22.03
The kernel uses more memory than it used to, as do most of the userspace utilities. The oom-killer does what it can to keep the system running, but it kills indiscriminately and eventually takes down something that it shouldn't.
The full warning from upstream is here:
https://openwrt.org/supported_devices/432_warning
4MB Flash/32MB RAM are long gone.
8/32 are touch and go (but looks like largely gone).
8/64 is about the minimum now, but a 16/128 would be ideal.

Re: Version 1.14.0: Based on OpenWrt 22.03
So I've flashed v1.14 on my Netgear WNDR4300 without preserving settings and it didn't work, router was stuck.
So I've pushed the firmware in tftp and this time it was OK. The only strange thing is 5Ghz bandwidth for wifi was not offered until the router rebooted...
No problem until now
!
ps: Another surprising phenomenom is that now the bandwidth of my ADSL connection is ~2MB whereas before it was only ~1MB without changing anything physically (I've just disabled QoS for upload and download which was still enabled with v1.13). The modem used is a Netgear DMM200. Maybe there was some kind of bottleneck ? Strange for such a low speed ^_^...
