+s===== Introduction =====
+Fon Flash is currently one of the easiest method for installing Gargoyle firmware on compatible routers (Atheros AR231X/531X but not including Ubiquiti routers).
 ===== Prerequisite =====
 On Windows you will need to first install [[http://www.winpcap.org/install/default.htm|WinPcap]]. Vista users may also need to install [[http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=A5C84275-3B97-4AB7-A40D-3802B2AF5FC2|MSVC++]]. I am currently working to recompile Fon Flash for Vista, to eliminate this latter dependency, but for now this is necessary for Vista Users.
+===== Download =====
+Download "Fon Flash" from [[http://www.gargoyle-router.com/download.php|here]]
+===== Run Fon Flash =====
+Once downloaded double click "fon-flash-gui.exe"
+Note: Vista users will need to run as administrator.
+===== Enter Details =====
+=== Select Firmware Type ===
+For Gargoyle select "openWRT/Gargoyle"
+=== Select Network Interface ===
+Select the network interface card which is plugged into your gargoyle router
+=== Select Rootfs file ===
+gargoyle_x.x.xx-atheros-root.squashfs
+=== Select Kernel file ===
+gargoyle_x.x.xx-atheros-vmlinux.lzma
+Routers like Meraki Mini require
+gargoyle_x.x.xx-atheros-vmlinux.gz
