Bricked RE650 EU V1 trying going back to Stock

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

Hi,

I bricked the RE650 EU V1 trying going back to Stock. I just took the stock firmware which was surely the right one and uploaded it. Clicked force upgrade and now. It just Blinks like.

It's steady Blue, a short light blue blink and a real Blink where the lights are shortly going off.

i guess i forgot to rename the image to firmware.bin?

i did this before and remembered it like this. But i guess i forgot to rename the firmware. Goddamn...

How to solve that if possible?

or should i just get get some paper, put it before a Vent and put my newly nice designed LED brick on it so the poor thing will not feel useles. Yes he's retarded but still cute though.

not funny... xD

regards,

Kid

If you can get the image through tftp back in, you may have another shot

I compiled it in WSL (Ubuntu). You will need access to your routers shell to follow the instructions from @mhaas . I suppose tftpd may work too provided the filename is properly renamed.
