warn:

– If you make a mistake installing this software, it can permanently disable your router, effectively turning it into a brightly colored brick. A brick router isn’t very useful – you can use it to beat someone’s head or as modern art, but that’s about it. You can pretty much eliminate this risk by following the instructions given here, so please read them before attempting to install Gargoyle.
– Gargoyle distributes it with the hope that it will be useful, but without any warranty; not even the implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. The authors of Gargoyle assume zero liability for any damages caused by this software.

About router firmware:

Before considering downloading this firmware, go to your router’s system information page and make sure that the currently installed version is not a newer version or matches this version.

Due to the wide variety of router models and different methods of device upgrades, it is highly recommended that you read and most importantly understand the installation steps before applying new firmware, even if you are an advanced user.

In theory, these steps shouldn’t be a hassle for anyone, as manufacturers try to make them as simple as possible, even if they don’t always work out. Basically, you have to upload the new firmware to the router via its management page and allow it to upgrade.

If you install the new version, you can expect a higher level of security, different bug fixes, improved overall performance and transfer speeds, enhanced compatibility with other devices, added support for newly developed technologies, and several other changes.

If you’re looking for some safety precautions, keep in mind that it’s best to use an ethernet cable rather than a wireless connection to perform the upload, as wireless connections can easily be interrupted. Also, if you want to avoid any glitches, make sure you don’t turn off the router or use its buttons during installation.

If this firmware meets your current needs, get the version you want and apply it to your router unit; if not, visit our website as often as possible to avoid missing updates that improve your device.
