C881-ETH IOS Recovery

Hello,

i've got a problem with IOS management. I've downloaded the IOS on the Cisco 881 Router, but then i had to break the download and i forgot it. Next time i deleted the operating IOS and then booted the router and ofc. it jumped in to ROM Monitor mode.

I wanted to send the new ios via xmodem, but the router can't recognise it. I have only these options:

Does anyone has an idea, how i can solve this problem? How can i upload the correct IOS?

Thank in advance

yes use the tftpdnld option you have there

It didn't worked. It said, that Ethernet 0 interface is down. Actually i found a solution. I could boot the router from a freshly formatted usb stick.

Thank you for you comment.

yes usb is the quickest too didn't realize you had a slot for that :)
