Title: [DIR-869] Update failed => bricked
Post by: yppy on April 14, 2019, 03:16:38 AM
Hello D-Link,
I'm sending you this MAYDAY  :-\

Looks like my update didn't go well, as I can see my rooter is brick and it's impossible to join it.

I read every step I can find on the internet.
Whatever I try, I start the router I have a orange fixed led for 8 seconds then it start blinking (orange bliking).
Ethernet cable plugged into port N°1. Manual IP is set 192.168.0.10 and I can't ping it
I tried everything with the reset switch (with a paper clip) nothing is working so far.
I used tcpdump to capture traffic with Wireshark, I can't see ARP request but nothing more...

Any idea will be greatly appreciated ! :)
Thanks for your help

Please try this:
Emergency Recovery Mode (http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=44909.msg163599#msg163599)

If this fails, I recommend that you phone contact your regional D-Link support office and ask for help and information regarding this.

We find that phone contact has better immediate results over using email.
Let us know how it goes please.

Did you try the recovery or just a reset?

If you plug a computer into a LAN port, do not statically assign it. Leave it DCHP. Can you release/renew an IP address?

Is anything plugged into the WAN port? If you have a modem/router, it may use 192.168.0.1 which would change the LAN IP address on the dlink router to 192.168.100.1.

If you statcally assign an IP, try http://dlinkrouter.local. instead of the IP address. Can you access it then?
