AC 66u flashing problem
Dear Merlin,
with ref. to my tweet here is the description of my problem with AC66u router. I am very satisfied user of Your firmware, this the first time I have a flashing problem.
I have just received the confirmation e-mail for this forum.
I upgraded from 376.49_2 to the latest 376.49_4 and after that the router died, there was no communication with it. After several restarts I put it to restoration mode, the power LED is slowly flashing.
I start the restoration utilities, locate the fw file, press upload. The progress bar comes to 100% and then comes the message
FAILED TO RECOVER THE SYSTEM.
I tried several times with different versions of both Merlin and ASUS firmware, but the result is always the same. I used 2 versions of restoration utilities (the latest one 2.0.0 and also 1.9.0), I tried 2 computers, one with Windows 8.1, the second with Windows 7.
There are no cables connected to the router except LAN1 for computer connection and power cable. Router starts now to recovery mode.
What can I do to fix the problem?
Thanks for Your help, best regards
