Gargoyle Forum

Hello,

First of all thanks for all the work to make this firmware. I currently have a WRT150Nv1.0 and a WRT350Nv1.0. OpenWRT is already happily running on my WRT150N and I would like to try Gargoyle on my WRT350N but I'd like to check first if Gargoyle have been tested on WRT350N yet. I know there's an image for WRT350Nv1.0 but I don't have a jtag cable in case I need to recover so I'd like to be sure it works prior to trying it. I tried asking google about Gargoyle + WRT350N but he gave no relevant results. Also tried searching this forum with no luck. Thanks in advance

I don't believe this router will work. Last I heard the driver for the switch on that router is proprietary, and the OpenWRT developers don't want to integrate the proprietary driver into their code base, so it remains unsupported.

If anyone has an experience to contradict this, please speak up below.

From what I gathered reading the OpenWRT forums and a long session with Google, the switch on the WRT350Nv1.0 is already supported by OpenWRT. From

And this guy posted the console output of his WRT350Nv1.0 booting into CFE and OpenWRT:

Would you be able to help me out with a working Gargoyle image? Or is my only approach to build my own image of OpenWRT and install Gargoyle as a package? Thanks in advance

Ah, ok, looks like you're right. My information is out of date. You'll need to do a custom build though, to make sure the proper driver gets included. After downloading the source from the SVN do a "make custom", which will pop up a menuconfig for you to select your configuration. Select the bcm57xx package under Kernel modules-->Network Devices-->kmod-brcm-bcm57xx.. That should include the switch driver. Save the configuration and Gargoyle will build.

Many many thanks. Will do it over the weekend

That worked for me, again many thanks. Have it up and running on my WRT350Nv1.0 now
