Tried this way as well, after i TFTP older version of the firmware C1200v1_eu_tm-up-boot-1.0.0 Build 20170905 rel.41738_2017-09-05_13.51.02 and wait the router the power cycle and reboot. And after reboot, it will still be the same international firmware.

There will be no TM configuration page at all.

No no....what I mean is, first you tftp 41738 into the router (don't reboot yet after you tftp 41738), then upgrade to 57928 directly at 192.168.0.1 page.

You said you are able to view TM firmware configuration page (the 5ghz high channel wifi list) after successful tftp, but it revert back to EU after reboot right? Following the above method ought to work.

Vlan tagging 600 doesnt work. My HyppTV collapsed. Kahkahkah.

Now, using it as Repeater for upstairs. I still need to get rid of the homeplug because it's really giving poor output in a 3-phase house.

This C1200v1_eu-up-1.1.3 Build 20180124 rel.52299 firmware is still very prone to uncommanded reboots.

12 hours and reboot
8.5 days and reboot

Time to drill holes to your concrete walls to lay cat5e cables all around the house...good luck.
This is what happened to me too and resorted to finally drilling holes all around the house to lay out the cables for a piece of mind once and for all.

check your CPU load, is it running at near 100%?

mine is not experiencing self reboot and CPU is running most of the time at around 11%, very seldom exceed 50%


** PS.

I am quite satisfied with this Wireless router, it does not give me any problem at all and WiFi coverage is good for my house for whole family use. so, no need to consider upgrade at this moment.

I'm experiencing 2.4Ghz WiFi is always "Aquiring IP Address..." around evening time.

Check if your WiFi channel is congested, try change to other Channel that is not congested.

Yes, I'm usinng channel 13 which is not congested at all...but still the same.

Can't, just tried it. Once the recovery firmware is transferred to the router, it will automatically reboot.

Cannot restore any of the UniFi firmwares.
It will restore the AU v1.1.1 Build 20170706 rel.65715 and Beta firmwares.

Reverting to the Beta firmware. The latest v1.1.3 Build 20180124 rel.52299 firmware is terrible for me. Keeps rebooting.

Sigh, I just sent email to TP-Link support again asking on how to revert back to Malaysia firmware from EU firmware.

Let see if TP-Link will reply to me. Don't put too much hope.....

Ok, solved it.

I have updated to the latest EU firmware. The route CPU load is 100% and preventing me from surfing the net. Any advice?

Mind to tell us how did you solve it?

Did you disable NAT Acceleration or use QOS functionality?

Or somebody is torrenting/p2p?

I don't use QoS. But im trying to setup ipv6. And not successful.

About cpu usage, did you enable other service such as USB file sharing and Print Server?

Currently im using mikrotik. That’s why you are seeing ipv6 feom the forum. I think i have mentioned that the tplink not usable. I cant browse anything. I have disable usb & print sharing.

My main aim is
1) low CPU load
2) works with hypptv
3) ipv6

ipv6, i turn it off still working ok, what additional function if turn it on?

Try a 30/30/30 reset and reconfigure your router again

Currently testing the famous cylindrical router, dlink dir850l router which purchased last week through a forumer (new tm set wrapped box (virgin) in plastics). The router comes with 2.09TM firmware pre-loaded when i open the box since the router is new. What i can say, apart from the annoying @unifi behind the ssid, the wireless coverage were awesome and far more better than that c1200. I don't know why people hate this router. For me it is working great. I am using google dns but disabled the ipv6. Streaming HD and 4K movies via wireless were superb. Besides that, I feel that the router is cute and perfectly fits even in small place. Although i against the suffix unifi thing, but, this firmware quite stable for me and still running successfully for about a week without even a single reboot. I feel one of the best routers supplied by tm besides the innacomm / innatech router and the dir615, i feel dir850l can get the title as well. This is my point of view and my experience of using the router. No offence. btw, im staying in 20x70 square feet double storey house. Router located at upstairs and I can get the signal even at my front garden (1/5 bar)
