Hi everyone! I have one Archer C9 bricked. When i power up, it shows all lights in blue. I try the UART recovery method but, shows only the message on putty:
"Digital core power voltage set to 1.0V"
"Digital core power voltage set to 1.0V"
"Digital core power voltage set to 1.0V"
And do not enter in CFE. If i press ctrl+C, it do nothing. Please, somebody help me and save my router.

Ok, if you say so. Maybe pulling off the flash chip and reprogramming it.
I'm sure it's cheaper than another router. _________________ I am far from a guru, I'm barely a novice.

Noob to forum, looking to install DD-WRT on a C9 v2 (aka US version 1900).
I've read through 20 pages of this thread and can't find the answer so I'll ask (again).
Is the C9 v2 firmware locked or is it possible to downgrade then upgrade to 12-24-2015 R28598?
I tried to downgrade to C9_V1_150122 but that didn't work (because I'm v2 obviously). Can't upgrade to 28598 directly either.
I'm using the stock firmware in my Archer C9 v1. Would you guys recommend me to install the beta 2016-05-10 ? Are you guys having problems with that firmware ?

I DO NOT recommend you flash r29621 (2016-05-10), I had serious problems flashig this version !!

Thanks for the heads up lad, I flashed 05-09-2016-r29607 without difficulties when it came out.
What version are you using now?
I've been consistently updating builds without a serial cable and a clue... I wish people would post here when they have a good flash with a new build to let others know. I will try to do that.

What's the missing step?
Am running 3.17.0 Build 20151009 Rel.61423n
Bummer. I have v1 and never had any problem flashing. Do you have the black or white version--if the black things could be a little different, although I'm not sure how--my experience based on the white version. I was prepared to downgrade to 150122 because of what I read but didn't have to do that either. May be a locked version (v2). Have you tried downgrading to the earliest stock firmware for v2, if there's an earlier one than what you have? Looks like it's 150708 (7/08/15--earlier than you have) here: http://www.tp-link.com/en/download/Archer-C9_V2.html#Firmware. Kind of obvious, but just in case in light of Derarchten's comment below: Make sure you do the factory to dd-wrt flash first, then follow with the web-flash. By the way, at the bottom of the TP-Link page just cited it does mention the possibility of using DD-WRT (see pic), so I would think it's not out of the question, so maybe you should call them. I'm using the release you want, r28598 (12/24/15), and it's worked well for me. Some warn against using a version before 1/25/16 because they overwrite TP-Link partitions, making it more difficult to revert to stock. See here: http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=283784&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=165. I'm sticking with what I've got though because I had printer sharing problems with the later versions. Good luck!
