  • Here I show how to Unbrick or Debrick a TP Link Router and Load its default original firmware.
    When to use this:
    1. TP Link router failed to boot after a firmware upgrade
    2. To change between regional firmware releases (America/Europe/Asia/Australasia etc)
    3. To revert back to, or change away from, official TP-Link firmware
    4. TP-Link firmware upgrade is stuck
    5. To perform wrong firmware recovery
    Requirements:
    1. Firmware from the TP-Link website
    2. A TFTP server which supports logging (this example uses Solarwinds - www.solarwinds...)
    3. Ethernet cable (preferably cat6 cable)
    4. Computer or laptop
    5. The TP-Link router must be on the same LAN segment as your computer
    For the Method - Just follow the video.
    If you have the following queries this video will be helpful:
    1. How to recover the router when you bricked it?
    2. how to use solarwinds tftp server for tp link?
    3. How to debrick tp-link archer
    4. How to unbrick tp-link archer
    5. tp-link firmware recovery utility
    6. how to recover the router if firmware is corrupted
    7. tp link router unbrick
    8. how to solve tp link router not responding
    9. how to fix a bricked tp-link router
    10. unbrick tp link router?
    11. Debrick tp link router
    12. How to change openwrt to tp link firmware If you want to contribute me anything use this link : www.paypal.com... If you need professional remote support contact me on telegram: t.me/ITnTech

    Bro thankyou very much, you pulled me from the deepest chambers of hell. I felt really fucked up when I bricked my system. Trying to immediately flash to openwrt also did not work for me. Just going straight to TP-Link (so not first openwrt) and flash openwrt firmware from the TP-Link web interface was the solution for me. Fr thankyou so much.

    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.

    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.

    I following the instructions exactly as described, but regardless of how many times I change the computer's Ethernet IP address to the one specified, Solarwinds doesn't identify the address, and instead defaults to 0.0/24. If I try adding another one, it will change the values to 0.0/whichever port I declared. It refuses to altogether bind into 0.66, no matter what I do :c is there something I'm doing wrong? I only have the default Realtek controller that was provided with the laptop, so the computer lists the bluetooth controller, the ethernet one, and the wifi, with only the ethernet enabled but still not working
