No it should be something like this: tftp -i 192.168.1.1 PUT nameoffirmware.img
If you wanna make things simple just rename the file to like a.img so its easier to type or paste in the command prompt.

Re: Power LED is blinking R7800
Try a Factory reset on the router and setup from scratch...

Theres this FAQ:

Hopefully a factory reset is all thats needed.

Re: Power LED is blinking R7800
Hopefully, but as for that tftp app its never worked for me. I've always done it directly via prompt.

Re: Power LED is blinking R7800
Hi mjeeda,
Have you tried the TFTP using the software?

I don't want to be too smart, I am new here but...
Do You think that tftp syntax on the attached by mjeeda screen is ok?

Apparently not, or else the TFTP program wouldn't have emitted that
usage guide.
As usual, copy+paste of plain text would have been more helpful than
a picture of plain text, but, as I read it, the attempted command was:
tftp -192.168.1.1 putR7800-V1.0.2.46
which is missing the "i" in "-i", is missing required white-space to
separate the tokens (twice), and (most likely) specifies the wrong file
name. ("Apart from that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you enjoy the play?")
Something like the following might have had a better chance:
tftp -i 192.168.1.1 put R7800-V1.0.2.46.img

Re: Power LED is blinking R7800
antinode its the latter one with -i that works. I use it quite often for testing various firmwares of LEDE/OpenWRT and returning to stock, been the same way since my WNDR3800 infact. Doesn't work without -i not to mention he forgot to put a space between put and the filename like you mentioned plus the file extension as well.
