I have been looking for an image file for the original nighthawk R8000 Stock firmware but haven't been able to find it. The router is bricked after I changed some settings in DD WRT. I can't access the login but I can still ping the router. I am still kind of new at this but am looking for a way to revert the Nighthawk back to factory firmware so I don't have a $250 paper weight. Any help would be much appreciated. If someone could link that firmware That would be helpful.

Not sure if this works for R8000, but has worked for me on other models, worth a read and consideration: https://lancelhoff.com/how-to-fix-a-bricked-linksys-router/
