WNDR3700 v2 switch LAN port to WAN

Post by TomaszM »

Hi,

Can i convert one of my LAN ports to act as a WAN ?
Unfortunately original WAN port is broken.

Is it supported by Gargoyle software ?

My router NETGEAR WNDR3700 v2.

You'll need to do it via the command line but it's doable. There's many examples out there.

PuTTY.exe for Windows will get you sorted.
Or Terminal.app for Mac
Or Terminal for linux
