Description

This is a BIOS dump for a TP-Link TD-W8901G router, revision 3.5, packaged as a RAR archive of about 1.1 MB. The uploader marked it as tested, though that is their own note and has not been independently confirmed. A dump like this is used to reprogram the SPI flash chip with a programmer after a corrupted firmware image or a failed update. Before writing anything, confirm that the model and hardware revision on your device match the file, and back up the original chip contents so you can recover if the write goes wrong.
