| Issue | Possible Cause | Solution | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | The router was powered off during the update ("bricked") | This is serious. Your router may be permanently damaged. First, try a hard reset (hold the reset button for 20 seconds). If that fails, contact Tenda support. You might need to replace the device. | | Can't log in after update | The firmware reset the router to default settings | This is normal. Perform a hardware reset by pressing and holding the RST button (located on the bottom or back of the router) with a paperclip for at least 20 seconds until the lights flash. Then, log in using the default IP ( 192.168.1.1 ) and credentials ( admin / admin ). | | Internet connection is lost | Your ISP settings were reset to defaults | Re-enter your DSL connection settings (VPI/VCI, PPPoE username/password) manually in the router's configuration panel under the WAN or Internet section. | | "File is incorrect" error | You are using the wrong firmware file | Ensure you downloaded the correct file specifically for the D301 v4 model. Using firmware for a different model will not work and could damage your router. | | Update fails or gets stuck | The firmware file is corrupted or the connection was unstable | Re-download the firmware file from the official Tenda website. Use a wired connection (Ethernet) for the update, not Wi-Fi. Disable your computer's firewall and antivirus temporarily as they can sometimes interfere. |

If the file was corrupted, download it again from the Tenda website.
