Reset button not working on TL-WR1043ND

Post by Bajramo »

Everything is working fine using Gargoyle 1.5.6 firmware except the reset button. I can't reset the router or get it back to factory defaults (using the web interface is fine).

Any possible fix for this ?

P.S. When using the stock TP Link firmware the reset button is working fine.

I would bet the reset button is not configured in the ROM. That's why.
The only way to fix is to manually install the required application, e.g. triggerhappy and configure it yourself.

Read the instructions here

However, you will LOSE this app and the configuration after you do a reset. So, unless you build your own ROM, include the app and configuration by default. This is really pointless...

PM me if you need to buy Gargoyle router in Australia/NZ, willing to pay me to help you on your Gargoyle configurations or build custom configured ROM with pre-installed app or try to fix your bricked router. Yes, I am looking for job/work.

Thanks, just wondering does someone else have this problem or is it just me. I downloaded the Gargoyle 1.5.6 from the official web page.
