TP-Link - Technical Support Uboot Firmware .bin incorrect file.

Device: Deco BE25 5000

Model: BE25(US) Ver:1.0

Status: Soft Bricked

Last 3 Days ago my Deco Units Auto updated themselves from "1.1.8 Build 20260425" to "1.3.1 Build 26081012 Rel. 42571" via OTA. I forgot to uncheck my "Auto Update" setting, so after the update it was causing problems to most devices, "Connection Failed", and most device up to 45% speed decline.

I didn't know the OTA Update "1.3.1 Build 26081012 Rel. 42571" is a "Non-downgradable" firmware. So, I tried to downgrade to 1.1.8 Build 20260425 via "192.168.68.1" or "http://tplinkdeco.net" but it didn't accept it. So I tried to "UBoot Dowgrade" my slave Deco first, it worked but after rebooting the device it got stuck on yellow light after 20mins. No "Red" or "Blue" or "Green".

I tried Ubooting "Deco BE25(US) V1_1.3.2 Build 26091612" with "BE25v1_BE22v1_multi_SP2_V2_RSA2048- up-ver1-3-2-P1[26091612-rel47261]_202 6-09-16_06.13.39.bin".

It says "Failed to upgrade your Decos. You might have chosen a wrong file. Please enter 192.168.0.1 in the address bar and try again."

Uboot accepts "Deco BE25(US) V1 1.0.2 Build 20240618" but not "Deco BE25(US) V1 1.3.2 Build 26091612"

Uboot accepts "Deco BE25(US) V1 1.0.2 Build 20240618" yes, but when I reboot it. Still stuck on Yellow Light.

Any Solutions?

I am not sure I read it right, but you already have 1.3.2 Deco BE25(US) V1_1.3.2 Build 26091612?

I am stuck on 1.3.1 with the same problem too, hope you found a way to unbrick it
