Morning sifu sifu.

Just wanna ask is there any performance difference/improvement over 3.06 to 3.10 or any of the latest firmware.

Currently on the 3.06 by TM.

If there is a improvement over software upgrade, i don't mind manually upgrading it to 3.10 above.

Any sifu mind to share any method? As for unifi original 842, when I disable ipv6 and set default to AP/extender. It doesn't work. Please help

hello bro, how u get the recovery page working? i still got no luck to reach that page

got this router from TM. plan to setup as my 2nd router to connect to my main wirelessly, like WDS or WLAN bridge. check through the options, has "repeater mode" which doesn't let me do a site survey. why TM always give crappy router every time. useless brick now. might as well flash openwrt.

Yeah it's pointless to have the repeater mode option when there's no way to setup and connect to the router WiFi. (FW:3.01TM)

Wanted to flash it through recovery mode (pressed reset button with power unplugged), managed to get the power LED to blink but it wouldn't let me access 192.168.0.1, couldn't even ping.

Hello guys, sorry to be out of topic a lil bit.

At the momment, my D-Link DIR-842 C2 is using 3.06TM firmware. However after update my phone OS to IOS14, it detects the WIFI as Weak Security.
In result, all video calls becomes very laggy and unusable anymore.

When I check the Wireless security mode in the router setting(192.168.0.1), only WPA/WPA2(TKIP) is available.

Is there any firmware for this router that can support the security mode up to WPA2(AES) or WPA3?


Thanks in advance!

May I know if what's the latest firmware for DIR-842 C2? Wonder if it would override the TM original version to enable the MAC filtering featuer?

842 C2. Currently on 3.13 firmware.

May I know if the 3.13 supports MAC filter feature? The 3.06 doesn't have the advance setting option for MAC address filter.

Let me check later.. and update..

Hi all Sifus, currently using DIR-842 HW:C2 FW:3.01TM.

Wanted to upgrade to v3.13 as the firmware includes support for WPA3.
So based on the release notes: The firmware v3.13 must be upgraded from the transitional version of firmware v3.02b03_middle.

Edited: Found it, v3.02b03_middle is inside v3.10B05.zip
