Hello,
May i ask for instruction how to revert to stock firmware ?
Tried the OEM web recovery?
Hello, Yes - iam trying but it gets to 100% and nothign happens.
I installed again openwrt image(via OEM recovery menu), and it boots normally.(with openwrt)
Anyone ?
I cannot back to stock firmware using WEB recovery mode. Its going to 100% and nothing happens. When i reboot - openwrt loads again.
Then you'll need serial to figure out why.
Hello
Any luck with going back to stock firmware since I'm struggling with the same issue
Could you please provide pinout, and small knowhow to open serial connection? I have rasppbery pi and arduino - i hope its help. I have basic knowledge about that - but i need to have instructions.
Thanks,

Ok, are there several version of the fw available?
[Error]sysmgr_proinfo_buildStruct(): 660 @ unknown id(device_name), skip it.
Would indicate the fw is incorrect in some way.
On vendor site, we have 3 firmwares for hardware V1.2.
Iam trying all of them - always the same results.
Maybe should i try firmware for V1 ?
I would expect the same result with v1.
Do you have any other options how to solve that problem?
Hey
I had v1 version of this router and had some luck with renaming the firmware to firmware.bin
and it only worked for the latest version
Basically the firmware was uploading from 0 to 100%, as usually it went to 3-4% and then skipped to 40%
and i was getting error when updating the firmware
I end up buying new router
If you can install openwrt (or openwrt is your current firmware) you may try to prepare sysupgrade like image from stock firmware and install it from openwrt web-interface.

Hello,
I just followed intructions from 123serge123, and prepared sysupgrade(using stock firmware) and web tool: https://argsnd.github.io/tp-link-stock-firmware-converter/index.html
I just flashed this sysupgrade under openwrt firmware upgrade page, and finally my AX23 boot with stock firmware (iam not lost any configuration!)
Thanks everyone for help
