" Error code: 18005 Upgrade unsuccessfully ..."
I have downloaded the firmware from the Hong Kong support site (I am based in Hong Kong).
There are 2 versions, and i have tried them both. both give same error:
Error code: 18005
Upgrade unsuccessfully because the version of the upgraded file was incorrect. Please check the file name.
I am DEFINITELY using the firmware for the correct hardware version (V11) which is clearly stated in the router's config HTTP config tool , on the "Status" section:
Firmware Version: | 3.16.9 Build 151021 Rel.76995n |
Hardware Version: | WR841N v11 00000000 |
These are the 2 firmware downloads avail which I have tried to upgrade to:
TL-WR841N(EU)_V11_160325 | ||
