Model: Deco X60  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version:

My Deco X60 remote unit is a brick. I can't connect using the 192.168.0.1 ip address under Method 2 as suggested in the solution.

Hardware version is US/2.6

 

There is an SSID listed under the MAC address - Deco_ADC4

Can I connect via the SSID to the Deco unit that is a brick?

Very frustrating how support provides half baked solutions that doesn't work.

 

Has anyone really tried to connect succesfully to a Deco X60 which has turned in to a brick?

Please help.

Thanks.

What solution are you referring to?  I would need to review what was provided before I can address it.

Hi Carl,

One of my Deco X60 has turned in to a brick (no idea how it happened). So I called the support and checked the forums on the solutions provided was to do a HTTP UBOOT Method.

 

I followed the instructions and used my iMac with a network port to connect to the X60. However I cannot open the page in the browser using the ip address 192.168.0.1 using private browsing and setting up my local ip address to 192.168.0.2.

 

Here's the link that I used.

There are two methods to recover the Deco if it becomes brick: one is using the HTTP Uboot web-based interface to recover and the second is using the TFTP tool to recover.

What am I doing wrong?

 

Also the hardware version is US/2.6. All other devices have updated to the latest firmware recently released.

 

Thanks.

Just posting it here as well.

For Step 2 in the instructions did you set your network adapter to 192.168.0.2/255.255.255.0?  

 

  1. Steps to enter firmware recovery mode and perform firmware upgrade:
  1. Download the latest firmware of your Deco unit here: https://www.tp-link.com/support/download/
  2. Do not power on the Deco unit, connect the PC directly into one of the ethernet port of the Deco unit.
  3. Set a static IP address of 192.168.0.2/255.255.255.0 on the PC’s ethernet adapter.

 

Also does your iMac have an ethernet port or are you using a USB to Ethernet adapter?
