TD-W8968v1_ 0.6.0_1.3_up_boot(131226)_2013-12-27_10.37.56

Hello
"Without lucky, I did try powering on with reset button pressed"
are you sure that the reset has really been done?
the right way of doing it is usually
- power on your device
- firmly hold the reset button a long time, say 20 seconds
- release it
- try to open 192.168.1.1 / admin / admin
Try it several times if you're not sure.
hopefully it could still work.

Edit: the version number is on the bottom of the device. There's a box: "Model: TD-W8968 Ver : 1.0" on mine.

Yes, I'm sure.
I tried various combinations:
Power on + Reset
Power on + WPS
Power on + WiFi
Power on + Reset + WPS
Etc.

When I turn on the power LED lights
Some seconds all LAN's LED lights and then lights turn off leaving those connection
And only work as switch layer 2

All the information I consulted, is related to OpenWRT maybe that's why it does not work, my firmware was tp-link
