Try tftp recovery...
Without knowing which device you're using, that's about as much help as anyone can give.

Typically, you cannot directly flash from OpenWrt > stock firmware with the LuCI web UI -- there are often instructions for how to do this on the device info page.

So if this thread is a hint as to what you bricked:



Then this is the page for rescue.

and not flashing or boot to stock :expressionless:

I've turned the topic title into something less generic.

Please edit and remove the image as it advertises use of a besmirched commercial product.


Did you try?:

Recovery page can be activated by powercycling the router four times before the boot process is complete.

The TFTP method had a note:
Note: TFTP boot can be activated only from u-boot serial console.

fwiw, if you have a C6 v2 (EU) model, did you use the earliest (2018) recovery.bin for it?
