FYI, this router temperature can be high till 85C, and it will be hang. even you add a super fan, the internal silicon pad need to be replaced with copper shim.

QUOTE(RokXIII @ Oct 1 2018, 01:05 PM) thanks for the explanation, gonna try again tonight.. There is two method:i spent nearly an hour just to get into the CFE page but failed.. tried to do it on my laptop and desktop, no luck..  1. CFE 2. Tenda bypass firmware Since you are using method 1, I am curious how you confirm you have enter CFE mode? there is a way to press the reset, no matter power off press or power on press. At first, i use method 1, using KS firmware all the way from 6.6 to 7.4, then switch to Merlin 380 series, then to 384 series, until i notice there is a risk start from 384 that either press FRD or Reset button, it will brick, then i restore back Tenda Malaysia firmware. Then want to flash back KS firmware X7.9, with the method 1, it failed to flash the firmware X5.7 beta, I have no issue to enter CFE, just the CFE does not accept the bridge firmware, it will prompt error halfway, no matter IE or chrome. at first i thought the firmware i flash maybe broken, but MD5 checksum correct, i then buy one more unit to test, and there is not issue at all. So i have to use the second method and it is very easy for normal user as long understand basic english. By the way, KS new firmware X7.9.1 out...anyone tested? |
