Full flash dump for the TP-LINK TL-WR842N router, labelled hardware version 4.3 with 4.0 in brackets and a 1 MB size, packed in a RAR archive. A full dump like this is written directly to the SPI flash with a programmer to revive a router that is bricked, stuck at boot or caught in a reboot loop. Check the hardware version printed on the label under the case and the size of the flash chip, and save the original contents first, since the calibration data and MAC address stored on the chip are unique.
