Preparing for flashing

Faced with the need to update a router, many users do not know how to reflash a tp router. In fact, it’s not difficult to cope with the task, but you need to prepare first. It is important to note that care must be taken not to lose power. Otherwise, a serious failure will occur, after which even installation disk with additional utilities. So, you need:

• Connect an uninterruptible power supply to the router;
• Unplug all network cables from the router, except the wire that is connected to your computer.

Before proceeding with the update, the device must be reset. This is necessary so that there is no conflict when you install the firmware. Reset can be done using the “reset button”. It is located near the ports. To press it, you need to use a needle.

Update process

Once the preparatory procedures have been verified, you can proceed to updating the firmware. First you need to enter the router settings. This can be done by pointing your browser to one of the following addresses:

To make sure that the update is installed, you need to connect to the router and then look at the current version.

Conclusion

Any user can handle updating the router software. The only thing you need to take care of is uninterruptible power supply during the update process. Otherwise, a breakdown will occur, and you will not be able to restore the device’s functionality on your own. It should also be taken into account that the firmware is installed only for specific model router.

Video instructions for updating the firmware

Surely many users are interested in how to reflash a router. However, first of all, it is worth noting that this task is not so simple (although quite feasible) and requires certain knowledge and skills. Unskilled user actions can lead to malfunctions of the router, up to its complete failure.

When it is needed

The need to reflash the router can be caused by several reasons, among the most basic are the following:

• Firmware update required. Manufacturers often give users this opportunity, which increases the stability of the Internet connection and adds new functions.
• If the selected Internet provider is not supported by the device or is not supported correctly, then the situation can be corrected by flashing it.
• If the router is unstable or too slow.

A few general rules

It should be remembered that before you reflash the router, you need to make sure that there are no problems with the power supply. A sudden power outage during the flashing process itself can lead to device failure.

In addition, you need to remember that you cannot reflash any router via wireless Wi-Fi network. This can only be done by connecting the router to the computer.

You need to download update files either from trusted resources or from the official websites of manufacturers.

You also need to remember that before you reflash the router, you need to remove the WAN cable (provider cable) from the socket.

You also need to find out the current firmware version. Usually it is indicated on the device itself, on a paper label. You should find an inscription like: Ver 2.0. The numbers will indicate the current firmware version. Rollback to previous version recommended only if absolutely necessary.

Following these simple rules will allow you to perform flashing quickly and painlessly, and will also save you from unnecessary headaches as a result of an unsuccessful operation.

Firmware in Russian for TL-WR841ND

Very often, users want to install firmware with a Russian-language interface. Here I would like to dwell on this point. When we look at the process of selecting and downloading firmware from the Tp-Link manufacturer’s website, you will see that for each hardware version of the device, several firmware versions are posted on the website. Some of them have an interface in Russian, some have an interface in English.

The list of files on the site indicates what language the firmware is in. When this article was written, the Russian version of the firmware for Tp-link TL-WR841ND was available only for the far from new hardware versions V9 and V8. Therefore, if you want to download the newest version, it will most likely be in English.

Of course, setting up a router is easier and more convenient when the software is in Russian. It will be much easier for you to understand the control panel, especially if you do not have enough experience. However, the English version is also quite simple. And basically the instructions for setting up the TL-WR841N are written for the English interface.

Firmware update on Tp-link

First of all, determine the hardware version of the device. It does not matter what model you have (TL-WR841N or TL-WR841ND). The easiest way to do this is to turn the router over and carefully examine the label stuck on the case. The place where the hardware version is indicated is circled in a red oval in the figure.

We see what the sticker says Ver 9.2, Therefore, our router has hardware version 9.2. This figure shows an outdated model, since currently Tp-link has already developed the 12th hardware version.

Now we know how to determine the version number of our router. This is very important information, which will definitely be required when downloading the firmware, because each version of the device corresponds to certain software.

Let's move on to downloading the file for the router firmware. Please note: the firmware must match your router model and its hardware version.

When desired page will boot, select the version on it that corresponds to the information printed on the device body. For example, if the label on the case indicated Ver 9.2, then select V9.

After selecting the hardware version, scroll down the page and find the tab at the very bottom Firmware(that is, firmware).

Select this tab and a list of files will appear in the window that opens. The first on the list will be the newest firmware, so you need to download it. To do this, save the selected archive file on the Desktop of our computer. You can choose another folder to save the file, as long as it is easy to find later.
