    AC5300 bricked

    the unbricked ac5300 I was referring to is the once bricked unit. your suggestion of using the interface did the trick. I managed to get to the command prompt of the router then got the tftpd running after which I uploaded the firmware, rebooted and hey presto, a router that was sitting in it's...

    AC5300 bricked

    got one step further. I managed to stop the router from booting and have access to the CFE, I followed a set of instructions to load the eth0 but this just came back with 'Network interface has not been configured' this is not very helpful considering the lan port is needed to run tftp.

    AC5300 bricked

    I may have when this issue first happened but will give it another go. so the only way to enter rescue mode is power on while holding reset. Still nothing with a different power supply even though both power supplies are exact same voltage and amperage. 19v 3.42A I have been watching the power...

    AC5300 bricked

    Just over a year ago I rebooted my router after a firmware upgrade, and it failed to come up. I managed to enter recovery mode and uploaded the current firmware at the time, after that update I rebooted the router (it died) and since then been unable to access rescue or recovery mode. if I hold...
