Help downgrading Archer AX50 firmware
Hi, I'd like some help downgrading my router's firmware after a recent update, back to an older version. From what I can tell, I'd prefer version 1.0.11 or 1.0.12 please.

Hi, thanks for posting question here.
The method of downgrading firmware is the same as manually upgrading firmware. You may refer to Method 2 in the guide.
Here is the recent firmware release on our official website.

Thank you for the reply!
I've attempted to downgrade the firmware via Method 2 in the guide and it doesn't result in an error message, but simply hangs indefinitely on with the "uploading 0%" status window visible in the web interface.
After an hour or so, I'll manually refresh the page, log-in, and it's resulted in no change to the firmware running on my router.
I've attempted power-off, reboot, hard reset via holding either the reset button or the WPS button while powering on the router; the behavior of the firmware upload function still hangs, even after these steps.
Is there something else I can to to upload firmware? TFTP? I can't seem to find any instructions.
Also, the only available firmware on the website is newer than I'd like to run on my router. A function I previously enjoyed was removed, and I cannot regain that functionality easily with the newer versions. A download of the .10 or .11 AX50 firmware would be much appreciated.
Thank you!

Hi,
1.0.11 https://static.tp-link.com/upload/firmware/2021/202109/20210907/Archer%20AX50%28EU%29_V1_210730.zip
1.0.12 https://static.tp-link.com/upload/firmware/2023/202308/20230831/Archer%20AX50_V1_230829.zip
I can't find a 1.0.10 firmware for the AX50. Not sure if this version was ever officially released.
Note that in Archer AX50 firmware versions prior to 1.0.13 the HomeCare feature is broken. That might also be the reason why TP-Link is not listing those versions anymore.

Thank you so much for the links! I appreciate the warning about home care too.
Do you have any insight regarding the hanging on firmware upload? Or instructions for an alternate method with which to update firmware for the AX50?
Thanks in Advance!
