  Gargoyle is an interface for small, widely available routers such as the Linksys WRT54G series and the Fonera.[1][2][3] It provides extra functionality compared with the default software including dynamic DNS, quality of service, access restrictions, bandwidth quota management and bandwidth monitoring tools. The software's developer, Eric Bishop, says its primary goal is to "provide a polished user interface for these advanced tools that is at least as easy to configure as any existing firmware".[4] Gargoyle is based on top of the most recent Kamikaze release of the OpenWrt firmware. TechSpot listed it as one of "the most popular [firmware alternative] options out there".[5]

  Gargoyle is a free OpenWrt-based Linux distribution for a range of Broadcom and Atheros chipset based wireless routers, mainly the older-model Linksys WRT54G (including the WRT54GL and WRT54GS), Asus Routers and Netgear WNR3500L. Among notable features is the ability to limit and monitor bandwidth and set bandwidth caps per specific IP address.[2][3][4]

Delete- certainly falls under the spirit, if not the exact letter, of G4. I don't see any good reason for this to have been restored, and the nominator is right about the sourcing. Reyk _YO! 10:19, 16 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
