ASUS RT-AX88U Pro - problem with firmware update

[mario762#]

hello. I uploaded some software to the router and everything worked. Automatic update popped up and it didn't start. The router supposedly goes into service mode, the diode blinks, but I can't connect to it with the recovery program from Asus - it writes an incorrect IP address. Of course, the IP was changed to 192.168.1,10 mask 255.255.255.0.


can someone help on the topic?

Provide more information if you can including what troubleshooting steps you have taken.
Have you rebooted the router?
What firmware are you running on the router?
What "software" did you upload to the router?
Have you tried accessing the router using http://192.168.50.1?

Are you plugged into a LAN port (not the WAN)?

I connected it to LAN but I don't know which one and when I hold the reset button longer the power diode blinks

I uploaded something that worked, I think something 3.0.0.4, now I tried holding the wps diode, but after switching on, all the diodes do not blink, so the factory reset probably did not work. after holding the reset, the diode starts blinking, the router is supposedly in recovery, but I cannot go to update Asus, restarting shows an incorrect IP address

after holding the reset button the power diode blinks and I can't get to it. Unless there are other methods?

There is no .TRX file for your router model. If you flashed one in recovery mode then you bricked the router.
The .pkgtb is correct for the new models.
Only flash through the GUI.

Also try pulling the power cord out of the back while it is on, to drain the unit, wait a full minute and plug it in again.
