WIFI gone after firmware update thru Web Interface - Unable to reset device - buttons not working
Hi,
I have a strange problem. (PowerLine is working - Wifi-function is gone)
Before update everything was working as expected.
* All leds blinked as they should. (all 5)
* Buttons pair/led/wifi worked. (all 3)
* Reset-button - Before this i have never tried the reset-button on this device so i cannot verify that function worked before.
I updated firmware thru the Web-interface to the version "TL-WPA8630P(EU)_V2_2.0.5 Build 20230428" which i downloaded from TP-link site.
- extracted the .bin file
- attached the file in the web interface and got response back wait and the % start ticking towards 100%
- the upgrade seemed to be successful as the devices which were connected thru the ethernet ports was accessible again.
- i started tpPLC on my windows PC and the 2 PLC-devices are found as before BUT the part with "Wifi-module" does not have icons for that anymore in the tpPLC-program.
- so i tried to recycle the devices with power off - wait a few seconds and power on # Didnt help
- tried to press the reset button for at least 30 seconds but nothing happens.
- tried the buttons wifi/led/pair etc. on the "wifi-module" but no reaction.
So as the Web-interface dissappeared when i did the upgrade using it I am out of options. Please help me to make it work again.
Here is a picture from tpPLC (the device on the top is expected to have Wifi-icons)
