Commands to upload firmware from tftpd on ap 330

[VictorFBR2025]

Hello, I have an AP330 with corrupted Firmware. I can log on to Uboot and execute commands to try to recover it, but I have had no success. 

I downloaded the archive AP350-6.5r16.img.S (20MB) and read about its compatibility. 

I executed these commands to try, to bring him back to life, and access the console. 

"tftpboot 0x80000000 AP350-6.5r16.img.S" (the firmware is successfully downloaded but not booted)

I have extracted the file vmlinux.bin.22101 (4.4MB)

tftpboot 0x80000000 vmlinux.bin.22101 (the firmware is successfully downloaded but not booted)

have renamed to vmlinux.bin and recovery.bin, also renamed the file AP350-6.5r16.img.S to AP350-6.5r16.img and recovery.bin

after all these tests and executed bootm command, the return is:

=> bootm

I have tried to contact support to understand the right commands to apply to the device. but they recommended to me: this is too old, buy a new one.  

the device was working properly, and after a network policy update with firmware upgrade, resulted this.

can someone show me the path to solve this problem, please?

If getting to UBOOT, the device is corrupt and not fully booting up.

EOL was back in 22.

Nothing can be done to salvage it, unfortunately.

Hello @Christoph_S!

This is sad, thank you for your time!

Hello @VictorFBR2025 

Have you tried rebooting into back image per these instructions: https://extreme-networks.my.site.com/ExtrArticleDetail?an=000094266 ?

Hello! @Christoph_S! 

Yes, but unfortunately isn't possible to execute these commands,  when I plug the device into the console and power it up.

This is all the output of the console,  I entered the password from Uboot and these commands from the link do not exist. 

I would like to know, how I reflash the OS firmware from Aerohive, to put it back in the console. Using the file AP350-6.5r16.img.S
