    AC88U bricked (stuck at Starting program at 0x00008000)

    Hi Guys, another question, do you know where I could download 3.0.0.4.378.xxx version firmware for AC88U. It seems that there is a major change to the bootloader from 378 to 380. Which repartitions the memory differently. This might be the original cause for bricking the router. kind regards Pascal
