Gargoyle Forum

I have had a TP-WR1043ND router running Gargoyle since I got it (got it on eBay last year). In the beginning I had a lot of connection issues which led me to getting the router. About a month after I set it up, and having sporatic connection drops, it started working great - with no config changes.

Now, having been working for several months, 2 days ago I added a Hawking HWREN2 WiFi Range Extender, and this morning it dropped the internet. After several attempts at resetting both the cable modem and the router, both with the extender on as well as off (which it is right now) and still nothing. If I leave it alone, It resets itself a few times and then settles with the power light, the system light and the two wired connections that are active (my TV and a computer) are the lights that are on.

I have attached a screen shot of my router setup:
Can anyone shed some light on my issues?
Thanks in advance.

I don't know if it'll be any help but I think the hardware version of the router is 1.10.

I had the same problem with my TL-WR1043ND router on 03/30, it would reset constantly throughout the day.

It stopped resetting on 03/31 and has worked fine since...I have no idea what the hell happened.

That is messed up...the exact same thing happened to me - date wise. 3/30 = multiple resets. 3/31 = seemingly fine.

Was anyone else out there having similar issues? Where do you live (state, province, etc)? Who is your internet provider?

HI All
I apparently have a similar issue:
I can reach the login screen, login and get the status page, but then any click on another menu item brings the login screen back.

Multiple power cycles didn't help

Any idea ?
Thanks to All

I can connect by ssh.
I upgraded the FW to 1.6.0 with
# wget http://www.gargoyle-router.com/download ... pgrade.bin

# sysupgrade -v /tmp/gargoyle_1.6.0-ar71xx-generic-tl-wr1043nd-v1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

and the status screen does show that version now, but still nothing else is accessible.
Unfortunately the ssh usage doc on the gargoyle website only shows the introduction.
I do not know how to gently reset the system.
