  @Andy2022 

 

Have you tried if a factory default restore (either via the GUI or via a long-press of the reset button) changes anything?

 

While most firmware updates don't require any "rework" to be done, some firmware updates actually do require the router to be restored to factory defaults and then need to be configured from scratch again.

  @woozle Hey, Thinks for reply me, I am no try any detault restore, just saw the web update firmware seccussfully, then reboot the router, after it back. I saw the passwd and user name was restored to tplink default admin/admin, and all previous configs are losted, I thought it maybe already using a default factory config started router. So, I did not try to any default restore.

BTW, all other functions like wan, lan, wireless dhcp are work fine, the only problem is LED does lighting. I mean all of dashboard LEDs.

My Archer C9 also doesn't light up anymore, and I'm having problems with the speed that doesn't exceed 300Mb

The lights on my Archer C9 V1 haven't worked right for quite a long time. I don't know if it was a firmware upgrade or what but it does seem that TP-Link doesn't care as this has been reported many times and they are silent. I know the LEDs function as they will light up on a reboot or if you insert a USB drive and so fourth, but they don't function as they should. The only light I ever see during normal operations are the orange one when I lose internet. It is a shame as otherwise it has been an awesome router but I probably won't buy another TP-Link as they don't support their devices as they should.
