Hello, what is the current led status of the TL-WR840N?/

 

You can hard reset it and then try to use the firmware recovery to give it a go. Below is the instruction.

If it does not work, you can use TFTP to try again, if still the same, I'm afraid that there is not much we can do; You can order a new router with better performance.

 

Good day.
