How to install dd-wrt 3.0 (beta)

This procedure is tested only using latest beta of dd-wrt 3.0 and TP-Link Archer C9 v1.

Using version 04-05-2016-r29409 I noticed a quite stable behavior.


Follow these steps:

  • Ensure you have latest firmware from TP-Link
  • Download the last appropriate dd-wrt firmware here, named factory-to-ddwrt.bin
  • Upload the dd-wrt firmware using the standard TP-Link UI
  • 30/30/30 reset


Troubleshooting

Bricked Router

Symptoms: all the LEDs are ON, and you can't access to UI

Follow these steps:

  • Switch off the router
  • Download a complete binary-image of firmware
    • From the official page OR
    • From the dd-wrt beta downloads (not tested)
  • Rename the downloaded firmware with the following name: archerc9v1_tp_recovery.bin
  • Serve as TFTP server the renamed firmware on the following IP: 192.168.0.66
  • Switch on the router, holding the RESET button for 2-4 seconds
  • The firmware will be automatically downloaded and installed by the router


Symptoms: after the dd-wrt installation the MACs are changed!
