Hi, I am trying to recover a router I purchased from eBay. It's Belkin F9K1124 AC1900. I tried to recover with UART but this is not recognising any commands. I pressed esc while booting and this is what I booted up to. It's not CFE as other websites mention. Resetting with TFTP by pressing reset button didn't work either. Can anyone help me with this? It does recognise reboot command. For anything else it says Unknown command.

It's not CFE - it's Realtek's bootloader - it's been a long time since I've looked at Realtek's Router/AP SoC's, but if I recall correctly, they build their SDK from OpenWRT.

Here's a good link to get you started...

Take a look here for good info from Realtek

Enjoy!
