RouterStation Pro Wireless

Post by ddsforlife »

I recently flashed Gargoyle onto my new RouterStation Pro.

After flashing 1.4.4, in the GUI I upgraded to 1.5.1.

In 1.4.4 I was able to enable the Wireless card, now in 1.5.1 I no longer can enable wireless. I put in the settings and click "Save Changes" and nothing happens.

I feel like pulling my hair out! :) Ahh!

Only reason I put 1.5.1 on is I wasn't able to get online with 1.4.4.

I now can get online, just can't enable wireless.

I've also noticed that the "saving changes" dialog gets stuck and the spinning wheel spins forever and I have to manually refresh the page to move past that.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm typing this message through a Routerstation Pro with a wireless connection running 1.5.1

Do you restore your settings though a gargoyle backup?

What model of wifi card are you using?

You could try this how-to for trouble shooting

also I would try putting the router back to it original settings with "firstboot"

I did not restore settings...I tried to set it all up like I was starting fresh...

The wireless card is "Alfa MB92M"

This is the one I bought.

UPDATE: I downgraded to 1.4.4 and was able to get online (and use wireless)...now I would prefer to use 1.5.1...should I backup my settings and restore them and that should make everything work? I was having issues with the pages locking up and freezing...through the GUI it would change the setting...but I would have to manually "F5—refresh" the page or I would just have a spinning icon and a darkened background.

Don't restore settings once you have 1.5.1 if you want to use TOR

Eric had posted in another thread you should re-configure from start

Per that, there may be a slight difference in 1.5.1 because of the
2.4GHZ / 5GHZ fixes, so if 1.4.4 works for you - stick with that
