[Solved] Belkin f9k1115 v2 unbrick

Hi, please help unbrick router
I accidentally deleted the folder etc in the root of the file system, after that the router only blinks with a light bulb.
As I understand, the router has a recovery mode if you press the reset button and wait a few seconds the router tried to find firmware at address 192.168.2.1 via tftp.
The problem is that I do not know how to correctly name the firmware so that the router sees it
By Google Translate

https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/troubleshooting/failsafe_and_factory_reset should work.

Linksys (now Belkin) official TFTP recovery instructions...

https://www.linksys.com/us/support-article?articleNum=137928

This would return your router to stock firmware.

You would then reflash the correct OpenWrt/LEDE firmware after that.

this does not work (((

tried to press the wps button while loading the rounder
here is the log
but I can not connect to the router via telnet or ssh, and I can not enter anything in ttl console either

Everything turned out to be much easier than I thought.
It was enough to include the router with the reset button pressed set the static ip 192.168.2.2 and go to the address 192.168.2.1
It is strange that this is not a word on the Internet did not find
By the way, the correct speed for ttl is 126000 in the bootloader and 115000 after loading the kernel

Hi.
I was researching some methods and found this for a secure OpenWrt update

OEM recovery method to apply OpenWrt or original firmware

Verified method

  • Press and hold the reset button when plugging in (for at least 3 seconds after plugging it in)
  • Connect to a Lan port
  • Set the IP of the computer in 10.10.10.3
  • Browse to 10.10.10.123 (IE, Chrome, Mozilla)
  • Click the Browse ... button and select the .bin file and then click APPLY
