Gargoyle Forum

I installed gargoyle using the firmware flash page on the openwrt web interface.
Everything seemed to work alright, and after accessing http://192.168.1.1 i'm being promped the admin password. I enter 'password' but then the red text 'Invalid Password' slams right in my face.

Is this a common problem? Has the default password changed since the the web page was updated?

I have also tried ssh with user root and pass password but no success.

Try logging with telnet/ssh before accessing the webgui

I have tried that with no success using
user: root / admin
pass: password
Have also tried different passwords like 'admin'

Try the password you used in OpenWRT

Because Gargoyle is based on OpenWRT, it could be using the
same variable name. Flashing a new version of Gargoyle
does not always wipe out prior settings.

I've had the issue before where if I didn't blank out or do a
reset on prior settings, I had trouble getting in and had to
completely wipe blank all settings.

Ah thanks thats seems very likely. But I tried the password i set in openwrt but still no success, with both "admin" and "root" as the username.

Is it possible to reset to default when not having access?
What i did on openwrt was to press the reset button which then gave me telnet access so i could wipe the nvram and do a reboot. I can't seem to do this with gargoyle though. Is it because it doesnt respond on telnet (only ssh) by default?

edit: oh the telnet after resetbutton worked. Ill see what i can do now
edit 2: what is the correct way to reset everything to default? I dont want to brick it
haha edit 3: firstboot && mtd -r erase nvram
seemed to work! the default password worked, so ill see if i can configure this thing now
