Model: Archer C60  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: Archer C60(EU)_V1_160811

Hi, 

I have an Archer C60 V1, I did the update with OpenWRT, I didn't like that when I went back to the default firmware and the device doesn't turn on anymore. I tried the procedure via TFTP and does not respond, just keep the Powr led on. Can anyone help?

 

Olá

Possuo um Archer C60 V1, fiz a atualização com o OpenWRT, não gostei que quando fui voltar o firmware default e o aparelho não liga mais. Tentei o procedimento via TFTP e não responde, fica apenas com o led Powr aceso. Alguém consegue ajudar?

Hello, you can hard reset it by holding the reset button/hole for 10s with it powered on. 

 

Then you can try to use web firmware recovery to give it a go.

If it still the same, I'm afraid that there is not much we can do to unbrick it. And you need to buy a new router to enjoy internet instead. 

 

Good day.

I see. I'm afraid that this device is bricked and cannot be fixed. 

 

You can purchase a new router to enjoy the internet.
