Need to press the reset button for 30 seconds then release, then it send to PUT the command and upload the FW.
I had a problem on a Windows 10 PC where this didn't work to use TFTP, so I switched to a WIndows 7 PC and the TFTP worked.

When trying the Windows TFTP solution, my computer wouldn't even recognize that it was connected to a network when the router was on and connected. Going to try the unbrick utilty next.
