Hi! So I recently got the Asus RT-AC1900 from Walmart and while setting it up I upgraded the firmware to the latest one without reading much about it. Looks like it was a bad idea.
After it was upgraded, I flashed the latest Merlin firmware through the restoration tool and that messed up the router. I tried flashing back the Asus firmware again through the restoration tool but it seems to be stuck in some bootloop.
Is there anyway to revive it or I bricked it?
Also, I have another router (same model) which came with firmware 3.0.0.4.380_1842-g7414eb9. I just set it up and did not update the firmware, everything is working good.
If I want to install Merlin on this stock firmware, what are steps? This time I do not want to screw up and research before updating or flashing it.
Thanks!
