Unknown PIN after firmware update
Hello,
I found an Archer VR1200v router at home that I now wanted to put back into operation.
The first thing I did was install the latest firmware update:
"Archer_VR1200vv111.0.0.0_0.8_up_boot(181024)_2018-10-24_16.21.45".
After the reboot, however, the SSID changed. It now has "@unity" appended, and the device PIN is no longer accepted.
How can this happen? I have already performed several resets, but nothing changed.
Can anyone help me?

@Joseph-TP Thank you very much for your help.
The firmware was in Italian, which is why I was looking for the German firmware.
Unfortunately, I found the wrong version online, so that was my mistake.
With the incorrect firmware, the access password was also changed, which I obviously do not know. As a result, the device is unfortunately nothing more than a paperweight.

Hello @fffrischling-3 ,
If the password that you mentioned is the login password, you need to reset the modem first. How to reset TP-Link xDSL modem router to factory defaults

It is like the firmware update changed the default settings, which can happen sometimes resetting once more and checking the router’s label for the new PIN might help.

@Joseph-TP Thank you for the feedback. Unfortunately, I do not know the new password, and the default password printed on the label does not work either. The firmware I installed has overwritten everything.
