Title: How do I downgrade the DIR-859?
Post by: fernandoalmeida on May 21, 2020, 10:07:02 AM

I can't downgrade to version 1.05. The message appears: Firmware Upgrade failed!

I'm at 1.07
Region: Brazil
Via cable

I've tried these files:

You did unpack the .zip file correct?

Try this method to apply v1.05:
Emergency Recovery Mode (http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=44909.msg163599#msg163599)

I can't get into Recovery mode!  The ip is static, when I normally start it ping, but when I try the recovery mode it does not ping.  Only the power light and the lan port that i'm using are blinking

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.

I managed to enter recovery after the 15th attempt :)

Now I'm at 1.05b03 and the speed in 5ghz is normal. Let's see how long I can take before switching to third-party firmware. Thank you

If your seeing problems with recent FW version, please open a support ticket with D-Link support and let them know what your seeing and the differences between the two versions.
