Scenario

I have an existing ISP supplied Router/Modem which is already set-up to provide WiFi to the household. Unfortunately, I cannot load Gargoyle directly onto the existing Router/Modem. I want to introduce a Gargoyle Router because it is awesome.

Objective

Introduce and new Gargoyle Router into an existing Household network.

Approach

Going forward, the most simple setup will see the Gargoyle router doing pretty much everything and the existing ISP supplied Router/Modem demoted to simple modem duties.

Prepare a Gargoyle Router

Reconfigure existing Modem/Router

FIXME To Bridge or not to Bridge

Set the Modem LAN IP Address to 192.168.2.1

Physical Connections

Connect the Modem LAN port to the Gargoyle WAN port.

Configure Gargoyle

Gargoyle - Connection - Basic
Internet / WAN
Connect Via: Static IP (Wired)
Static IP: 192.168.2.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway : 192.168.2.1
