I have an Archer C2 v1 00000002 which I've been using for a year or so. Just installed firmware 0.9.1 5.0 v0032.2 Build 170228 Rel.38431n.

After the firmware update, I can no longer change the LAN IP of the router. I change it, click Save, click OK on the reboot confirmation, and nothing happens. I've tried it several times. I've also gone down to System Tools - Reboot and tried to reboot there. Same thing. I click OK on the confirmation and the box just goes away. It never reboots.

I tried power cycling the router. No change in behavior.

Other functions that do not require a reboot appear to work. I set up the Wi-Fi. Changed the time zone. Changed the password. All of those work correctly.

I've searched the board, and didn't see any thread titles that appear to address my issue.

Any suggestions on how I can shake the box to track down what's going on?

Thanks,
Drake Christensen

you update the firmware via wifi or wired connection? Do you have internet access after the firmware update?
You can try to press the reset button on the router for 10 seconds and try again
BTW, which LAN IP address you are trying to change ?

Did the update through the wired connection.

Yes, I have Internet connection. I'm connecting through it right now.

I'm trying to change it to 192.168.2.1, which is how it was configured prior to the update.

Bump. Anyone have any other ideas?

It gives no real feedback, so that makes it difficult for me to troubleshoot.

It goes back to the default 192.168.0.1 this IP address? Any error message When you click on save?
Maybe you can try to change another browser or use another device to login and change the LAN IP

Doh! *slaps forehead* Thanks. It was failing with Firefox 56.0.1. Worked with Chrome.

I usually think of things like that. Thanks for reminding me.
