TP-LINK TD-W8151N W25Q16

BIOS .rar 1.26 MB Shared

Firmware dump for the TP-LINK TD-W8151N wireless ADSL modem router, taken from a Winbond W25Q16 SPI flash chip. The W25Q16 holds 16 Mbit, which is 2 MB, so the image you write should match that size. Technicians use such a dump to unbrick a router after a bad firmware update by programming the chip with an external programmer. Check the hardware version on the router label, since images differ between revisions, and read the original chip first so it can be restored.
