D-Link DIR825 C1 Support
Posted: Sun Nov 08, 2015 1:34 am
Hi Gargoyle experts. This software looks amazing and I'm keen to use it.
I have a D-Link DIR825, but it's the C1 version, not the B1/B2 version that has enjoyed Gargoyle support for some time.
On the OpenWRT site, C1 is supported since Barrier Breaker, whereas B1 was supported since Attitude Adjustment.
Here in the Gargoyle forums, Eric has told us that v1.8.0 supports Barrier Breaker, and sure enough, there is a download for the DIR825 C1: gargoyle_1.8.0-ar71xx-generic-dir-825-c1-squashfs-factory.bin
So it looks good, right? What's my problem? The Gargoyle download page lists that firmware file (above) under the search for Atheros AR71XX. Now while the DIR825 B1 had the Atheros AR7161 CPU, the C1 uses the Atheros AR9344 (see below from OpenWRT)
I just want to make sure: does Gargoyle 1.8.0 really support the DIR825 C1, and it was mistakenly filed under Atheros AR71XX? Or has there been some kind of typo and it will brick my router?
