TP Link Router Unbrick | How to Unbrick/Debrick TP Link Router? | Router Recovery from openwrt.

Thanks a lot, I'd not thought of using Wireshark. I tried Pumpkin first without success, then with tftpd64 which worked. After the flash process I waited until the router re-booted, around 4 or 5 minutes. William/Rennes/France.

I am doing my homework on rollback before making my first foray into OpenWRT and came across this video. It's truly amazing. Thank you very much for sharing your experience. Really well explained. Cheers - Simon / Adelaide / Australia

For those who get the black ICMP "Destination unrechable (Port unreachable)" message:

I tried using a different tftp program called tftpd. Selected the destination of my firmware file, selected the network and turned on my router while holding the reset button. Then it started the transfer.

All for the C7 AC1750 V5

hello, I think I have bricked my archer c6 v2 when I tried to flash the stock firmware directly from the openwrt firmware and I followed everything you did in the video but I cannot get it to do anything. Only the power light comes on and nothing else. I really need this router running as I can not buy a new one as of now. I tried openwrt because my router takes too long to log into my pppoe account. please help me.

Hello, my router is TL-WR850N , My router power button is blinking a lot and internet connection is not able to connect. I'm not getting any firmware upgrade file in the official website, what can i do.

Hello, Thanks for uploading this. Is there any way to contact you regarding a problem I am facing with my router firmware? Thanks.

you really helped me with my old wr841nd when I tried to go with open source, you saved me a couple of bucks men, this video should have more views!

Thanks. Your firewall disable did the trick.

amazing tutorial, thanks buddy

It says port unreachable even after i disabled firewall, any ideas?

Im trying to flash OpenWRT to Archer C2 (AC750) but always got error like "TIMEOUT waiting for Ack block" in tftp64. Any idea what im doing wrong?

After flashing the original firmware, and getting the last block, my router goes back to a state where The LEDS stay on for 1 second, then they go off for 2-3 seconds. I followed all steps you mentioned, I even tried loading dd-wrt firmware as someone said they tried that and worked for them... nothing seems to be restoring my router, what is your guess about this please??

does it work on ec320-g01 tp link?

Awesome video, thanks!

Hello,
My router is a Tp-Link M7350 mobile router and doesn't have an ethernet outlet.
It starts and stucks at showing the Tplink logo and doesn't boot.
Is it a chance to flash it back?
The reset button didn't worked.
Thanks for a tip.

I have a TP-link Archer ac3200, while I was updating the router the power supply disconnected, causing brick. I tried your method over and over, router won`t communicate with Tftpd64. Any advice?, BTW I am subscribing

any solution for c50 v4 ? nothing worked for me, I am officially frustrated, the stock fw flashed with tftp but the router won't boot properly, the power LED is the only thing that is working by now :(

This only works if your device is still able to turn on am I right?
What if your device couldn't completely turn on?

Can you show how to firmware upgrade tplink archer c7 v2 to 2020 ?

thanks man u tha saviour. much appreciated.

Double check you guys downloading the correct firmware (“Archer A7” in my case). On the label of the router should say if it’s c7 or A7,… V5, V4… etc. And holding rest before turning on router. The firmware name on the TFTP-Root for mine was still “ArcherC7v5_tp_recovery.bin” even though my firmware is A7.
