TP Link Router Recovery Rescue Unbrick Official
You’re a lifesaver! Just a tip to anyone struggling - make sure to disable your antivirus and maybe reinstall the tftpd program. My antivirus was blocking it before and it was driving me mad!
You're most welcome. Comments like this make my DAY! 😁️ I'm glad to know I could help you and that you got value from my work here. Thank you for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
I finally got around to trying this on my bricked AC1200. It wasn't without hiccups along the way, but it worked!! Thanks for the video!!
For my "dead" Archer c7V5 helped few steps 1. Hold reset button (when holding reset and then turn off, then you see sign of arrows "WPS" turning green) 2. it's very important to name BIN file correctly in my case "ArcherC7v5_tp_recovery.bin"
Thank you so much for watching, commenting, the valuable feedback and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
how did you bring back your c7 v5 sir? I also killed mine and I've tried this method and all other methods a couple of times and non works.. I'm still getting a solid power led and I can't see my wifi anymore
I just get the power button light on and the arrows when I reset and power on but no other lights it takes the software but no lights go on and the power light is the only one that’s on any advice?

Sir being a firmware tech, for buses here in the Uk, I find myself in a somewhat embarrassing situation. I have a TP-Link TL-WR1043ND v3 which was running Openwrt. BEFORE I watched this video, I tried to reflash stock firmware using Openwrt [don't do it folks] it seems to have over written the bootloader, any ideas? I have yet to break in to it, both in software and physically ;) Great video. I like the tftp idea for flashing, going to look into that for work.
This is how we learn. I've messed up a few but have always been able to recover them. Check out the rescue procedure here: openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-wr1043nd You might consider getting a USB to Uart converter and wiring into it. Seeing as you are a firmware tech it may be a handy tool for you to have. Please tell me how it goes for you. Thank you so much for watching, commenting, the valuable feedback and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. Subscribe, Click The Bell and stay tuned! All the best.👍😀

@@richardlloydusa flawlessly concise explanation and filled with love and ethic. It was the key to resolve a failed firmware upgrade on my router Great work. Subscribed. Once again, thanks. Greetings from Venezuela
Thanks again for watching, commenting, subscribing and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Hi Rihard ;
All steps are done but the log viewer is not showing anything my router ia Archer Ax10
TP-Link changed the rescue procedure recently and your Ax10 uses the new procedure. Here my video for the new TP-Link rescue: czcams.com/video/oAsACOAM4DM/video.html
Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. Subscribe, Click The Bell and stay tuned! All the best.👍😀
@@richardlloydusa thanks ❤️
Most Welcome.
Thank you for making such a detailed video. Unfortunately it hasn’t worked for me. I have read through the comments for more troubleshooting steps and none of the suggestions worked.
The router is an tp link archer C8 v1 . So it’s the dual band ac1750 version. I tried to update firmware using the directions on the website and it failed to reboot after the installation. All the router does now is light up the “USB” led. No other LEDs light/blink/react to anything.
I followed your directions, confirmed the correct IP address, verified firewall settings for both private and public settings, eventually turned off the firewall altogether, uninstalled and reinstalled the 64bit version, confirmed my OS is running windows10 64bit, and tried another computer.
I cannot pick up anything on the log viewer in the tftpd64 program. I’ve tried resetting multiple times and still no luck. Powered the router down, held down reset/wps button, flipped the toggle switch to ON, counted 4 “Mississippi’s” released. Even tried counting to 5 just in case I wasn’t holding it down long enough, and still nothing on the log.
Your help would be appreciated sir. Thank you in advance.
Which IP address are you using on the network interface? If you're using 192.168.0.66 try 192.168.1.66 and see if you get a different result. You're most welcome and thank you so much for commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
@@richardlloydusa I’ve tried using both IPs. Neither worked.
I'm not aware of a serial rescue for it but it might exist. A few more things MAKE sure you are using a good Ethernet cable also try it in every LAN port and the WAN port you never know. Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
@@richardlloydusa Thanks again sir. I’m attempting to try it again using different ports. Known good cable, still couldn’t make it work.
If you’re willing to look at it, I’d be willing to ship it out to you, and even pay for shipping back. 😬 I’m currently in Washington state visiting family, but I live in Virginia for work.
@@richardlloydusa I didn’t find a way to contact you directly. But I really would like your help in figuring out this C8 router I have. At the very least a definite answer as to what is wrong with it, so I may find a solution for it.
Like I mentioned, when it powers on, Only the USB led comes on blue. Router does not appear to be booting up and therefore I cannot even connect to it. None of the Ethernet ports/ wan port light up when a cable is plugged in. Plugging in into any of the ports always gives me an “unidentified network” at the Ethernet adapter settings page.
Hi, excellent walkthrough. I have TP-MR6400 v5 bought used over ebay. When I power on all lights are light up and after sec only power button is blinking fast, no communication seen on tftpd64 log. AntiV and FireW off. Please help!?!
The TP-MR6400 is a combo router in that it is both a router and 4G LTE modem so it may have a different rescue procedure. Check these procedures out from TP-Link: www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/1482/ Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Hi Richard. Do you know if an Archer D9 has the same tftp or serial reflash capabilities? I've been trying to trigger tftp on it but I'm think8ng itay be a different creature altogether since it has the integrated DSL modem. I bad gui flash update the other day and now it is dead.
Try using 192.168.0.66 and 192.168.1.66 it may be on a different IP address but you may be right it could be that it's a combination unit.
Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Greetings Richard Do you happen to know if the Archer C3150 uses similar recovery methods from tp-link support site?
regards
Thanks for the great guide! I followed all your steps trying to unbrick an Archer A7v5 thats stuck in a boot loop, but unfortunately it didn’t fix it.
In TFTP64, the progress bar pops up, goes about 70%, and then disappears. I get the confIrmation that the file was sent in the TFTP64 log, but my Archer A7v5 is still in a boot loop. In fact, I am wondering if the boot loop is is cutting off the TFTP process.
Maybe the bin file is transferred, but isn’t writing to flash? I’ve tried the TPlink factory recovery bin, openwrt recovery bin, and ddwrt recovery bin, and then every other bin I could find. They all result in the same questionable premature progress bar, and continued boot loop.
You're most welcome. If you're curious you could get a USB to serial connection and use Putty to have a look at what's going on in the command line interface. You may be able to rescue it that way. This is the interface I use at Amazon(paid): amzn.to/3U51zNx I have videos on how to serial here's a few czcams.com/video/RtqVKNfuxWM/video.html czcams.com/video/fme7kwTkttk/video.html There are many resources available at the DD-WRT and OpenWRT forums too.

Hello Richard. My Archer AX6000 Router does not load the firmware, it has an endless blue light and I have no connection, the problem started when the internet connection was very slow, so I restarted the router and since then nothing has loaded. I have tried to use your method with this model but it doesn't work, connectivity between the router and the PC running TFTP is never achieved. An additional problem is that, there is no LAN connection between the AX6000 ports and the laptop in any of the 8 ports that this AX6000 has. Any idea of the problem? Thank you.
I think I know why, TP-Link changed the rescue procedure for the AX series and newer routers. Here's my video on my new procedure: czcams.com/video/oAsACOAM4DM/video.html
Thank you so much for commenting, watching and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. Subscribe, Click The Bell and stay tuned! All the best.👍😀
This meathod doesn't seem to work with a single tp-link ax router. Supposedly there is a way, but tp-link won't tell us. Do you know?
I think I do, BUT I don't have a TP-Link AX router to try it but here's a link to the procedure: bit.ly/3E4gilJ It will be method 2. Tell me if it worked. Thanks
Hi Richard, Thanks for all your valuable vid's. have a question, A router is remote which I can manage but need to over-write the admin password. So even if its back to factory default, the password will be a new one I've created/updated.... NOT the original 'admin'
I'm not sure if you're asking a question or making a statement here but I have never seen a factory reset of a router not reset the password back to the factory default (by design this makes sense). Now you could use third party firmware like DD-WRT which allows you to reset the router and NOT have a factory password at all.
If you reset a DD-WRT router to defaults it forces you to change the username and password on the first log in. The only problem with that is that you have to do that from a local machine connected to the internal LAN or LAN ports of the router or WIFI. So this doesn't really solve your problem as you still can't do this remotely but you could have someone who is using the network reset the router and password after which they could load up a default configuration to the router and it would set it back to what you wanted. Another option is to configure two routers identically and if anything ever happens to the primary router you could just swap out the routers and have the faulty one shipped to you for repair.
Thank you so much for commenting, watching and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Hello I have the Archer C6 router, the dual bands light dont show up and the router doesn’t show up in wifi, also while trying to register the log in tftp, there’s no response, tried holding the reset button and switching on the router many times, but the log doesn’t register in tftp
Here's a good resource for that router: openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/archer_c6_v2 Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Have a tplink archer C7I just get the power button light on and the arrows when I reset and power on but no other lights it takes the software but no lights go on and the power light is the only one that’s on any advice?

What will i do..if my led light in archer c80 are auto blink and on-off, including power led
Have you tried this procedure? Thank you so much for commenting. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Hi Richard, just a question.. if my computer's ethernet adapter is not reading any signals from LAN cable connected to the router (red X on network adapter), will TFTP client recovery work?
There a few possibilities for failure here; The LAN port on your computer may not bet functioning. You may have a bad Ethernet cable. Try a known good cable. You can do a simple LAN cable test by plugging both ends of the cable into the router. It should light up two ports and that would also tell you the ports on the router are working too. In your case if the two ports don't light up it may also mean that the LAN ports are not working. But make sure first that you know you have a good cable. If you can not get a network connection to your router after you know you have a good port on your PC and a known good cable try every port on your router. Sometimes a single LAN or multiple LAN ports can be blown. Thank you for watching, commenting and the valuable feedback. I appreciate it greatly. All the best. 👍😀
@@richardlloydusa thanks for the tips. :)
@@talismanicac where you able to fix? Im having same trouble on my a7.
I am not getting anything while trying to catch the error in log viewer. What should I do in this case?
First make sure you have set up the IP address EXACTLY like I show in the video. If that is correct and it still does not work unistall and reinstall the TFTP software. Be sure to handle the firewall questions correctly. If all the above does not work you can try turning off the Windows firewall or whatever firewall you are running and see if that works and if all that fails try it in a different computer and again make sure you let the TFTP server access through the firewall. The firewall is the usual reason for no response on the log veiwer. BTW which router are you trying to rescue?
Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Did the same on Archer AX10 V1 ---> Custom firmware (Digi ISP) version, but does not work Any suggestion to replace the custom firmware on this thing? maybe they programed the Ip address to something else as well...? maybe using wireshark? to snipf it? Couse tftpd does not show the messages that router asking the file
Here's a link to an alternative method: www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/1482/
Try method 2
Try it and report back to me on your results. I want to know if this works so I can consider buying an AX to make a video on it too.
Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
@@richardlloydusa none of them works...
The router address with digi fw is diffrent but i did with both...
HELP plz! I have Archer AX23 and I cant see anything in the logs! I followed your instructions perfectly.. I also checked Openwrt and cant find any information on the device. Please help. I feel like the IPV4 IP is wrong or somthing.
I disabked windiws firewall and everything else.
I believe I know why it's not working. TP-Link has changed their rescue procedure. I've made a video on the new procedure based on your question. It should be ready to post this evening or tomorrow at the latest(Stay Tuned by Subscribing and Hitting the Bell!)

I can't see anything written in tftpd64. I would follow your step perfectly but can't work. Router name: archer c6 v2
It might be your firewall settings. If you can turn off the firewall do so, If not uninstall completely the TFTP program and reinstall it. Make SURE to answer to allow, I believe both check marks in the firewall questions, the TFTP program to pass through the firewall (See the video). Also double check you have the IP address set correctly as I show in the video and last but not least make SURE you have a good Ethernet cable connected to the router in a LAN port NOT the WAN or Internet port and make sure you have a good connection to your computer. Another thing you can try as well is do the whole procedure on a different computer. Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
@@richardlloydusa thank you so much
My pleasure. Good luck!
I did it on my C6 vs eu and it downloaded the files, i let it set up everything trough the night, so i didnt check the leds. On the next day i could see that the power led is just on and i couldnt connect via the internet to the router. Any help?. But great Video
All I have for the C6, I show in the video. Try the procedure again on a different computer if you can. Check this site for further information on the C6: openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/archer_c6_v2

hello , my router is td-w9960 .
tftp doesn't respond .
tried all expected ips + disabled firewalll + tried 2 devices !
what should I do ?
I would check with TP-Link support to see if they have a quick fix for you prior to trying anything listed below.
Try this procedure: czcams.com/video/k0J00ksC92M/video.html
Now I don't own a TD-W9960 so I can't verify if the above procedure works but you don't really have much to lose by trying it. BTW I would just try the stock firmware in the rescue mode first without editing the firmware with the hex editor.
Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Richard. Great video but no luck. TP-Link AC1200 v1.0. TFTP server connection successful. renamed downloaded bin file to name indicated in log viewer. Upload recovery file transferred successfully. However on reboot the original firmware still running....
tried it twice with different firmware even with OpenWrt
I suspect this is an ISP issued router and it's locked somehow.
Any ideas?
Thinking to try serial...
Are you using the oldest possible firmware from TP-Link? I find the original issue of the firware works best. BTW which firmware is it running? Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
@@richardlloydusa can't remember all the detail but it's (EU). The TP-Link firmware I tried was (US). So you're saying if I get the old possible DD-WRT or OpenWRT firmware and try that?
Give it a shot, not much to lose at this point. Once you get it up and running you can work on reverting it back to whatever state you wish. Thank you so much for commenting, watching and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀

@@richardlloydusa Yeah. I also do that but the Deco Mesh don't have any response after the process. I got the same error which is in STEADY YELLOW LIGHT

Hi Richard. For me, I have TP Link Archer C50 and All lights are blinking. When I connect the network cable, it doesn't recognise in the laptop. What do I do? TP Link support just says I am out of warranty and they cant help me.
I managed to get the file transferred. now there's only one power indicator light solid without blinking. but I am not able to go into the console.
I've tried but the tftp seems to not fetch any data, tried using a different version and still failed

Sometimes it's the firewall on Windows that stops it. Turn off the firewall and try it again. If that fails try it on a different computer.

@@richardlloydusa Thanks, I am aware of that but tftp does not work in his case. Seems i need to solder the pins and try serial/TTL link...,moreover: power button fell apart ))
Unfortunately I do not have access to a c20i or I could coach you further. Thank you so much again for commenting, watching and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
@@richardlloydusa Np. Actually ive just managed to solder the pins and got serial link but dont know how to stop the boot loop and prepare for flashing NAND partition/s/, besides there is strange character coding in console/screen, putty/-lots of rubbish or overwritten memory?..
The garbled characters usually indicate noise from a poor connection or a cold solder. The stop command is "usually" CRTL-C or tpl. Thank you so much for commenting and watching. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
Can i know how to unbrick Dlink Dir 816 router after wrong firmware update? I already tried reprogram the chip and with TFTPD like ur video but no luck. Now my router is only power led on and no respond at all.
What part of the recovery process failed? Thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
@@richardlloydusa My router is chinese version and no recovery mode. I press reset button than power on but nothing happen and TFTPD software not showing any log as ur video. So i reprogram chip using CH341A but same result. To try with serial connection but i don`t have serial connector so i using CH341A programmer as serial connector but CH341A driver show as USB not a COM port so i don`t know how to connect it to putty software. I can only test ping from CMD and i get reply.
The good thing is that you're getting a reply there's hope. Have you tried the TFTP procedure in a different computer? Sometimes the firewall settings do not allow the connection. Thanks
@@richardlloydusa Yes, i already tried it sir... Main problem is my router does not support or cannot enter into recovery mode when pressing reset key. So TFTP software no respond at all. And official firmware come with img extension not a bin so some debrick tool not working too bcoz almost all tools need bin file and my firmware is img extension. Last night i tried with seial connection and i got some unreadable character on putty CMD interface and cannot type any command. I got respond from putty CMD interface everytime i turn on/off my router. On pc internet protocol it was always showning unidentified network. I already tried reprogramming IC, jumping IC, Serial connection and TFTP too. Still no luck so i just give up on that router and really appreciate for your reply sir. I wish u r in good health and can make a lot of video sharing....
Try reversing the TX and RX lines to the router and make sure the connections are good. Other people have had some success with removing the ground wire from the serial connection and trying with just the TX and RX wires. Thank you for watching, commenting and liking. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀
All steps are done but log viewer is not showing anything . My router is TL-WR940N

Most TP-Link routers have this rescue feature. I would give it a shot. It may work for you too.

This video is an eye opener. However I am still hesitant to apply this method on my TP-Link Archer C60. Can you enlighten me on this specific model? My Wii router went dead after a firmware update and right now only the power light signal is green. I cannot even access Tp-link router page from my browser. Regards
Thanks Mate! it's working after 12 hours of struggle (mostly because of my own lack of knowledge, and the fact that I am using linux mint made it all the more difficult). This and other videos of your channel are very detailed and well explained for a novice like me to get back my modem. Regards,
You're most welcome. I'm glad and very happy to know that I could help you. Thank you so much for watching, commenting and the very kind words. I appreciate it greatly. All the best.👍😀

@@richardlloydusa Your video has helped me fix my router, its good that you provided explanation to what you do, you also operated on a router i used to have back a few years ago which was nice. I was just frustrated with that router stuff not working and indian tutorials with same length not providing proper solution and wasting my time fueling the frustration. As an apology i have liked the video + also commended for the algorightm
Keep it up! :)
Apology accepted. Thanks again. I appreciate it. 👍😀
