Hi,

i had a working Linksys TL-WR841N v9. After a thunderstorm there are some issues.
Failsafe mode is working. I have flashed with upgrade image and tried to reset. Also tried factory.bin

When i try to boot the LED Power, Port 2 and Sys (Lock) light after some time.
No cables are connected and Port2 (on Cover) light.
When i connect to Port 1,3,4 i get a link.

What do you think, is my hardware demaged? Is there any chance to "disconnect" Port 2

If you flashed an upgrade image or a factory image before reverting to the image you currently run, there's a good chance that the LED configuration of your router is incorrect. If you can connect to LuCI or SSH to the router, then find the LED configuration and check that everything is set correctly. https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/uci/system#leds

In order to determine possible hardware faults, you'd need to pop open the case and see for short-circuits etc.

The discussion might have continued from here.
