Hi,

 

The firmware must match the hardware version, otherwise it may damage the actual device.

 

If the MR6400 V2 works fine with firmware for V1, it is not suggested to flash it back to V2 due to potential loss.

 

Good day.

Hi Kevin_Z, The thing is the router is not working at this point. That's why i was asking for a solution to get it back to its original state.

Hi,

 

Sorry to respond late. 

 

It is not recommended to update the firmware back to V2 cause the router may be faulty and stops working completely.

 

Meanwhile, for your information, according to the warranty policy, we are unable to offer a replacement due to the wrong firmware upgrading. 

 

Wish your understanding. Good day.
