ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: Direct firmware load for ath10k/QCA988X/hw2.0/board-2.bin failed with error -2 The normal thing is to hook up the serial interface and do some extra commands so the file isn't rejected. A simpler thing is to modify the binary you're using, to match the expected id info above. The stored information in NVRAM is corrupted above..it is all F's. Another possible corruption is all 0's. I used a hex editor (like Flexhex in Windows) and modified locations 0x40 thru 0x47, (which had the 0xc7000002, at least for a OpenWrt binary) and also 0x48 thru 0x4f. I modified those locations to also be all F. (total of 16 bytes of F). What should I do if I cannot find my wireless network or I cannot connect the wireless network ? 03-21-2022 1546033 As an affordable AC wireless router, the TP-Link Archer C7 AC1750 has a lot to like. For the price you'll be getting everything you'd want from a higher-end model, without the price tag. It's a good looking and compact system that's easy to set up and fast to configure, with a no nonsense interface. We've actually been missing the old external antennas; we're not sure letting people fiddle with the positioning is necessarily a good thing, but they look cool. We liked

Do NOT turn off the power during the upgrade process, as it may cause permanent damage to the product. Next plug in Baite to your PC, and short CS pin of the SPI flash chip on router to one of the router's GND pins. Power on router and remove the object used to short CS pin after few seconds (when ethernet LEDs go off) How to configure your TP-Link Wireless router with CenturyLink’s fiber service (new logo) 06-27-2022 252571

Connect one of the yellow (switch) LAN ports to a machine running a TFTP-server. Configure the server machine with IP 192.168.0.66/24 (subnetmask 255.255.255.0, 'router' option can be empty) [1]. The router will run as a TFTP client at 192.168.0.86. ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: firmware ver 10.2.4-1.0-00033 api 5 features no-p2p,raw-mode,mfp,allows-mesh-bcast crc32 c41417d0 First several attempts to read flash this way worked for me, even with adapter khz 150, but later it always failed (no matter if set khz to 1, 10 ,50, 80 or 100), sometimes it managed to read part of flash and then the process was interrupted. Slow flash reading still works, e.g: flash read_bank 0 blk1 0x00010000 0x10000 This router had one of the easiest setup processes of the entire group, with an extremely simple wizard popping up automatically to guide you through the initial network configuration. The wizard is very easy to use, but you do have to complete it before you can begin browsing the internet. Again, we started with the short-distance tests. The TP-Link Archer C7 did quite well in the line-of-sight version, averaging a speed of 211 Mbit/s. However, its performance dropped in the obstructed version of the test, delivering a below-average speed of 184 Mbit/s.

External Antennas with Dual Band WiFi Greatly Expand Wireless Coverage

I include all this detail, because the path from using modified OpenWrt .bins (with F's) to similarly modified TP-Link oem .bin (stripped) to using unmodified TP-Link oem firmware (not stripped), was more of a hassle than I expected. It's possible the 2nd “.bin with bootloader” from TP-Link overwrote some NVRAM locations that the initial boot-stripped TP-Link .bin didn't, because now I can load a variety of unmodified TP-Link oem .bins from the TP-Link webgui, when I couldn't before. Since 1982, PCMag has tested and rated thousands of products to help you make better buying decisions. Read our editorial mission & see how we test. The led lights stop flashing if the file is accepted and loaded. That's when you know you've modified the bin with the correct id to match the corrupted values. flash info 0 #0 : ath79 at 0xbf000000, size 0x00800000, buswidth 0, chipwidth 0 # 0: 0x00000000 (0x10000 64kB) protected #

How to use OpenVPN to access your home network through the Wi-Fi Routers (new logo) 06-27-2022 740246 The average 802.11ac upstream performance we feel is more of a blip for the TP-Link Archer C7, as it's still more than usable and is providing good to excellent downstream speeds, which are really more important. The real win is that you get a top-class dual-band 802.11n router thrown in, which is probably of more immediate help.
