Lb1120 continuous reboot

I have a lb1120. When powered on the amber power light comes on for about 15 seconds then goes out for about 5 seconds and then repeats this indefinitely. None of the other leds light up. I have tried resetting via the button on the back but it doesn't seem to respond (i.e. no matter how long or short I hold it in, the power light continues the above cycle without change). Any ideas on a "hardware recovery" or other solution?

    That's an LTE modem.

     

    While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge.

    You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:

    Mobile Routers, Hotspots & Modems

    Those things are very different from the standard Netgear routers covered in this section.

    I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.

    In the meantime you could visit the support pages:

    Support | NETGEAR

    Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.

    You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.

    I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.

    Could you please let me know which carrier you are using with the device?

    Thanks

      At&t. But it never gets far enough to even connect to cellular data. I'm wondering if we had a power surge that fried the board.
