I tried flashing a brand new Rosewill RNX-GX4 with Gargoyle. The flash when fine. Then, via wired, I tried to set up the router as a wireless bridge. Now it seems to come up, and I can see it broadcasting it's SSID, but I can't connect via wired (and I can't connect via wireless, apparently because it's in bridge mode, so no DHCP?
I think that the mistake that I made was in trying to configure the WAN port to bridge to the LAN ports.
Anyone know what address range the wifi might be setup on by default? If it's setup as a client bridge, but incorrectly, is there any chance of connecting via wifi?
Anyone know how I can fix my bungle?
GNX-RX4 wired ports not working

Re: GNX-RX4 wired ports not working
I was able to fix this last night, I figured I'd post what I learned, in case someone sees this later.
Part of my problem was that I had misconfigured the router into client mode, so it wasn't able to connect to the AP. For some reason, that meant that it wasn't willing to respond on its own IP address?
The other issue I have is that I didn't understand how to correctly TFTP firmware onto the router. I was thinking I needed a TFTP server with the firmware. I didn't realize that the router ran the server and that I needed to push the firmware on that way.
Anyway, I now have Gargoyle 1.3.5 successfully setup as a bridged wireless client. Thanks to those who've made this project so easy to use. (:
