Continuously flashing top LEDs at reboot
Got a new one for me. Anybody seen continuously flashing orange top LEDs at reboot. Netgear software clearly has control since the top LEDs are involved. Unit is hung. All normal reset, reboot, reload procedures tried. No option to TFTP or NMRP.
Thoughts?

OP talks of flashing "orange" top LED. Maybe its magenta? I would call magenta "purple" rather than "orange"
Router ring LEDs
Solid white. Your Orbi router is powering up.
Pulsing white. Your Orbi router is in factory default mode.
Pulsing magenta. Your Orbi router ring LED might pulse magenta for the following reasons: the WAN port link is down, the router is unable to get the IP address from the modem or ISP, or the router is unable to connect to the Internet.
Pulsing blue and magenta. The Internet connection is blocked because the traffic meter is configured to block Internet traffic when it reaches the limit you configured.I could go with amber but definitely not magenta.
