Model: Archer C3150  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version:

My C3150 just bricked on a firmware update =/. There's only 3 lights, WPS, Internet and power light on. I tried some tutorials to unbrick, but none worked.

What can I do to recover it?

Hi,

 

Please press wireless or wifi button for about 5s and check if the wireless lights come back on. Or press the reset button for 10s.

 

Did you upgrade the firmware with a PC hard wired to the router?

 

When you upgrade the firmware, was there any power outage happened before? If so, it may damage the router.

 

Please try this and see if it can be recovered:

So, its been about a year. I tried these solutions, but it didn't work. It's V1, so there's no web interface for recovery, only v2 have. I'm giving another chance now, because I'm about to just throw it away, as it seems theres no solution and I don't have warranty anymore. There was no power outage when I updated, it just bricked after an update.
