Hi guys,

My router TP-link WR841N v8.4 has build r23204 of dec 2013. It works fine but the wifi signal strength is 1 bar shorter than that of the stock firmware for the same distance.

I am wondering whether the latest build 24461 is stable and has better wifi signal strength.

Thanks

This new v9 device has a diffrent hardware. How could TP-Link made this router worse by downsizing the cpu?
Such a pitty! The v8.x has an Atheros AR9341 500Mhz.

https://wikidevi.com/wiki/TP-LINK_TL-WR841ND_v9.x

It isn't supported yet.

u re so wrong, V9 have 550mhz, newer, faster and better chip than v8.
Its like 2 years diffrence between arm technology.
look here
https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Qualcomm_Atheros
search for
Qualcomm Atheros QCA9533


PS. I have v9 version, so this data is correct.
Your wiki link is wrong or its for CHINESE market only, their routers are always worse.

Can anyone help??

I accidentally bricked my wr841nd v8.2 and now its in a continuous bootloop.

I attached the USB to ttl adapter to the Tx, Rx, and Gnd pins on the board but the PUTTY console is reading gibberish.

When I try to write 'tpl' I can see the Rx light on the usb to ttl adapter blink.(along with every keypress) but the router is constantly rebooting and not responding to commands.

Any help would really be greatly appreciated!! Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad

Bump...

Please, does anyone know how to proceed? Crying or Very sad

The reboot loop just wouldn't stop and serial i/o on putty doesn't take my input.

Hey!

TL-WR841N v8 router to install the dd-wrt firmware. If you do not like that I can restore the factory firmware?

Thanks!

Yes, I used Tx to Rx and vice versa. That got me the garbled output.

Tx-Tx and Rx-Rx doesn't give any output on putty!

if you do receive bullshit, your serial adapter may not get 5V+. is it serial to usb ? oh jes it is. try first to set RX and GND, TX isnt needed for signal.
then power on router.

maybe u have just wrong USB to TTL.

see www.blogdevice.de for unbricking

I found an issue with DD-WRT v24-sp2 (6/23/14), where wired devices on eth1 can't communicate with one another after a fresh flash and 30/30/30.

I've been searching for a solution for this, but I couldn't find anything so far. Any help would be much appreciated.


That was the same to me.
Telnet/ssh to router with putty.
user: root
pw: webinterface login password.
run this 2 commands:
swconfig dev eth1 set enable_vlan 1
swconfig dev eth1 set apply

check the result with pinging, if its ok then set them up as startup script.
Done!


@N3szt0r, the method described by you worked for me, I've got a lot to thank you, really thank you.

Sorry my bad English.
