TP-Link WR1043ND v1 00000000
Hardware v1.9
Serial 12.....

1º wr1043nv1_de_3_9_17_up_boot(100331).bin in browser

download files in site
http://www.dd-wrt.com/site/support/othe ... r1043nd%2F

and flash with browser
2º factory-to-ddwrt.bin
3º tl-wr1043nd-webflash.bin

wan port is ok, all is ok.
now have DD-WRT 20548 (BrainSlayer-V24-preSP2)

liked to test Gargoyle

To revert stock, I wonder if I update the file below the browser, no have problems, no brick ?

please files and metode

If you have DD-WRT firmware on your router, you can flash
via the DD-WRT GUI to Gargoyle

POSSIBLE via GUI = DD-WRT -->> Gargoyle

POSSIBLE via GUI = Gargoyle -->> DD-WRT

NOT POSSIBLE via GUI = Gargoyle or OpenWRT ->> stock firmware

If you have DD-WRT installed

Goto Downloads on the left menu

Choose the Atheros AR71XX series

When flashing via DD-WRT GUI - use the "sysupgrade" firmware

"factory" firmwares are for flashing from router stock firmware via TFTP

"
POSSIBLE via GUI = DD-WRT -->> Gargoyle
POSSIBLE via GUI = Gargoyle -->> DD-WRT
NOT POSSIBLE via GUI = Gargoyle or OpenWRT ->> stock firmware
"

is not the opposite !!!
NOT POSSIBLE via GUI = DD-WRT -->> Gargoyle
NOT POSSIBLE via GUI = Gargoyle -->> DD-WRT
POSSIBLE via GUI = Gargoyle or OpenWRT ->> stock firmware

Ok,

Just to clarify. On your 1043ND you have DD-WRT & you want to try Gargoyle?

I have just done this, DD-WRT didn't want to go straight to Gargoyle, even though it should.

1. Goto:

http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=85237

You will need a forum account to download the files. Download the revert file for TP-Link WR1043N/ND v1.

2. Using the DD-WRT web interface revert to the stock software using this image. You may have to rename it to a simple filename as this sometimes causes issues (e.g. rename the long file as stock.bin)

3. Upgrade the stock image to the latest version using the TP-Link web interface. This image can be found at:

http://www.tp-link.com/en/support/downl ... n=V1#tbl_j

4. Download the Gargoyle image of your choice. Quite a lot of people have suggested 1.5.6 is best for this router, I have tried 1.5.9 and it is fine for me.

5. Rename the file something simple (e.g. gargoyle.bin) and install it using the TP-Link web interface.

6. Log onto your gargoyle router at 192.168.1.1 with password = password

I hope this answers your question...

It depends on the device I guess.

I've successfully flashed the following:

WRT54G-TM -- flashed DD-WRT -->> Gargoyle via DD-WRT GUI
WRT54G-TM -- flashed Gargoyle -->> DD-WRT via Gargoyle GUI

WZR-HP-G300NH V1 -- flashed DD-WRT -->> Gargoyle via DD-WRT GUI
WZR-HP-G300NH V1 -- flashed Gargoyle -->> DD-WRT via Gargoyle GUI


Some routers may or may not be able to do this, but I have personally
done the above back/forth flashes and they work fine

Atheros chipsets take MUCH longer to flash back/forth

If you're flashing an Atheros chipset device - let the flash go
for about 10-15 minutes, then if you see no response,
power cycle the router and see what GUI comes up.

thank you

but the file in http://www.tp-link.com/en/support/downl ... n=V1#tbl_j,
with or without word "boot" or equals

wr1043nv1_en_3_13_4_up(110429).bin (no boot)
wr1043nv1_en_3_13_12_up_boot(120405).bin (with boot)


have installed wr1043nv1_de_3_9_17_up_boot(100331).bin previous and factory-to-ddwrt.bin + tl-wr1043nd-webflash.bin in ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/others/eko/BrainSl ... -wr1043nd/

I have gargoyle on a tp-link 1043nd v2 and I want to revert back to the tp-link firmware. I am a newbie to routing, so can anyone give me step by step?

Thanks.
