Stuck On Beta 2

Downloaded RT-AC86U_384.5_0zip twice for my AC1900. Unzipped it, Rebooted before and after. Giving me the unsuccessful message again.

It's in the readme. Bolded and text color are mine.

The RT-AC86U is not the same as the RT-AC68U.

Use the correct firmware.

Your first few words .....


"Downloaded RT-AC86U_384.5_0zip twice "

Merlin's instructions are to use the RT-AC68U , NOT the 86U

 

[teknojnky]

did you use the AC68 as per the readme, or did you use AC86 as per your original post ?

 

[MoInSTL]

My bad.

I guess I am a little dyslexic before second cup of coffee. Thanks for the quick replies.

 

[teknojnky]

don't worry you are not the only one, I have done that myself in the past.

Never ever do firmware flashing when you are sleepy...
