Post by Emmabri »

Hi guys i new in this forum, and new with all these of routers world, please sorry for my inexperience but i need your help, i will try to explain my troubles...

version '1.5.X (Built 20140826-0910 git@a72c749)'


| Gargoyle version 1.5.X | OpenWrt Attitude Adjustment branch |
| Gargoyle revision a72c749 | OpenWrt revision r38347 |
| Built August 26, 2014 | Target ar71xx/wifi_onu |

and i'm experiment a problem with my onus the problem is this

1-the onus works fine but after hours the wifi doesn't work, i can't see the SSID or the wifi net with my divices and if we try by cable works fine the connection(via ethernet), i have internet only by cable when this happen.

2-then i restart the onu and everything works fine for a time...
and after time the onus wifi doesn't work again

That is indeed an experimental version. What router model do you have? When you login, there should be a line that states your router model:

Mine's the Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH2.
QoS Tip: Don't complicate your QoS settings. Gargoyle evenly splits available bandwidth between active devices as needed. Just delete all your classification rules and leave only one normal service class and you're done. No more arguing over bandwidth.

don't say a lot about version, i think is a generic version or something like that

and if this is the flash memory (60.3mb) i will try to upgrade the version to 1.9

thanks for your answers :)

No mate that's not the flash it's just the ram.

The flash is like the hard drive on a computer and the ram is like the memory.
I dont no what your router is there. I cant see your screen shot as i am blind and using a screen reader. It's ok tho mate some one else will let you and me no. lol :)

Look how high that CPU usage is too...
It could be crashing out the wifi.
