I've tried dozens of things over years, followed many forum posts. Many attempts have said "Successful, rebooting", but I'm always stuck at the same version.
I've tried 30-30-30 and webrevert, but still stuck.
Can someone please provide suggestions as how to upgrade this thing?
Edit: build 24461

Generally you have three options:
Try a different browser (Waterfox Classic , Pale Moon , Portable Legacy 45 or 52 ).
You can use TFTP method if it's available on your model.
Then there is the command line method via Telnet/SSH to download from FTP or HTTP (not https) then issue the write command.
In my opinion command line would be the most reliable assuming you type the commands correctly.

Thank you! I was able to use the CLI method to upgrade to r34311 (12/2017).
After that, I was able to reflash with the normal web interface. Now I'm running r41811 (12/2019).
I should've just asked a long time ago.
Thank you again for your valuable help! _________________ My tl-wr1043nd-v2 is stuck in a temporal causality loop.
