I know this has been covered in various posts (which I have looked at) but I have a persistent problem that I've yet been unable to clear.
I have in the past loaded DD-WRT, and Merlin to this router (actually had multiple routers) and successfully restored them to ASUS firmware. This one is proving a challenge.
Router was on DD-WRT
Router in recovery mode with power light blinking slowly
PC connected via LAN cable (no wireless)
No response to pings on 192.168.1.1
Can get to CFE miniWeb Server
Cannot telnet (Putty)
Firmware restoration utility sees the router, uploads file, and processes restore (system recovery in progress) - fails with failed to connect message, check LED's for recovery mode, etc.
CFE Web interface seems to attempt to load file, but browser loses session soon after I click upload
Tried with older 3264 firmware (working OK on my other ASUS router) and 7378
Tried the reset button/power on/WPS switch
Tried the 30/30/30 reset
Router reboots in recovery mode
So...
Tried the WPS/power off/power on/reset option and was able to ping
Tried firmware restore utility and again it failed as above
Tried the WPS/power off/power on/reset option and was able to ping
Cannot telnet (Putty) - timeout
CFE Web interface says "connecting", but browser loses session soon after I click upload
Still can ping 192.168.1.1
Ping times are 0ms, 0ms, 0ms
All above using Chrome browser
EDIT: tried IE but it will not connect
Any suggestions please?
