Recover factory firmware on TP-Link TL-WR740N v4.23

[jiade8]

I flashed Gargoyle 1.5.10 on TP-Link TL-WR40N v4.23
Now, I would like to revert back factory firmware but I do not know how to create Image file. Would anyone mind if I can have Image file for TP-Link TL-WR40N v4.23, in which I can use the Gargoyle GUI to revert back factory firmware.
Thank you!

1: Download latest firmware:

http://www.tp-link.com/resources/softwa ... 130529.zip

2: Download a app called "winscp517".

3: Download a app called "putty"

4: With "winscp", login (SCP mode) as:


hostname: 192.168.1.1 (or one you configured in connection - lan)

username: root

password: (if you have created in gargoyle or default "password")


and copy the firmware file to "tmp" folder (rename to orig.bin before).


5. Open PuTTY as SSH to 192.168.1.1 and perform the following command:

cd /tmp

dd if=orig.bin of=tplink.bin skip=257 bs=512

mtd -r write /tmp/tplink.bin firmware


and wait until flash complete!
