Wg1608 brick I flash wrong firmware

Post by jay6480 »

I was trying to flash different firmware and now I can not get in to recovery, I try assign ip address ex: 192.168.1.2, 255.255.255.0, 192.168.1.1, with or without dns 192.168.1.1, it does not take me to recovery mode anymore. I try holding the reset button for 15 to 30 sec no luck.

This is when I flash wrong firmware version that was openwrt mesh+

I think the recovery firmware got erase or something, I only see two light power, and l1 lan port,

I also tried with 3 different computer no luck.

I need to fix the recovery firmware please help

Mesh+ doesn't have recovery that I can figure out. They use a custom u-boot that seems to not have it.
You'll likely have to see if the serial ttl port is communicating and try to use that.
