Failsafe reset the router.
There's a thread called "Gargoyle CLI" or something. It has a YouTube video on how to do it.

I tried to enter in the "failsafe mode" following these instructions

https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-mr3420

"Enter failsafe mode:
1. remove the power plug from the router
2. press and hold the RESET button
3. insert the power plug
4. release the RESET button
"

or other methods, as

"Press and hold WDS/RESET, power on, the WDS-LED (padlock) lights up. "

but nobody works for me. The led-padlock lights up for 7-8 seconds, the pc seems to find something as a wired connection... and after that 7-8 seconds, the router returns to lights first the on/off led and 3 seconds later all the leds. After 2 seconds only the on/off led, and 3 seconds later all the leds... and so on... and my pc doesn't find anything anymore...

Suggestions?

Yeah, but my power led never blinks so fastly!
I tried with the wps/reset button and also with the widi button, but nothing work.... only with the wps button the padlock led turn on for 7-8 seconds, but after returns as Always...
