What openwrt image file to use when flashing from gargoyle web interface?
Openwrt factory image or sysupgrade?

Use the sysupgrade file - but I have not had success flashing it
from the Gargoyle GUI - I flash the sysupgrade via command line.
Putty into the router and do the following:
login with user root and your password
"cd /tmp"
"wget firmware.file" (from openwrt or host your own browser)
OR - you can WinSCP into the router and copy the sysupgrade.bin
firmware file into the /tmp folder
Then do:
"sysupgrade -n -v sysupgrade.bin"
And wait for your router to flash and reboot
The -n resets the config and -v is verbose output
USE -n when flashing from Gargoyle to OpenWRT!

Thanks, and where can I find list of all available commands when using Gargoyle's CLI ?
The 'help' command does not list all available commands.
Thanks in advance.

See that page
Gargoyle is OpenWRT underneath
All the OpenWRT commands work via the command line
