Gargoyle Forum

Hi.
I have been searching for help on my issue for the last hour, and could not find something that worked for me.

I installed Gargoyle 1.4.7 on a brand new TL-WR1043ND v1.10 (gargoyle_1.4.7-ar71xx-tl-wr1043nd-v1-squashfs-factory). The install went fine, but it did not come back after the reboot. the Power (PWR) light is solid green, and the LAN port that I have connected it to is lit up. The SYS light does not turn on. I have tried everything short of opening it up and trying to connect to it via serial. There is no response to ping to telnet over Ethernet. I can not invoke safemode or safeboot as there is no UDP response.

The weird thing about this whole issue is that I am able to ping 169.254.10.39 and it does respond to port 80 (blank page). But, I can not ssh or telnet on that address.

Any ideas on how I can unbrick my new device?

I've saved my WR941ND (very similar) with the serial cable

I found the solution:
You have to use the serial console

It is very important to feed the circuit with 5v but not with 3.3 v does not work.
Use Putty series,
with

Stop bits1

I use the commands:"firstboot" command, and then "reboot
After that I can re-enter the gargoyle
