[Solved]Bricked WR1043ND

So my router bricked today when upgrading from Gargoyle 1.5.3 to 1.5.4.

Failsafe doesn't work and sys led is completely off.

Any ideias to recover my router?

Regards


edit:

I have a functional MR3420, it's possible to use it to recover the other one via serial port?
That's my ideia... but I don't know if works.

Follow that thread and included links.

You need to use a PC to do the recovery, not another router.

You'll also need a serial to TTL converter USB cable

Hello, thank you for reply.

I'm waiting for a USB<->TTL cable... hope it works.

Debricked!! :D

Very easy with a TTL Cable. And OpenWRT wiki guide.

Thanks
