Working fine one day...
Orange/amber light boot loop the next
Tried reset.. nogo
Tried 30 30 30 reset... nogo
Laptop sees it as an ethernet connection
But no ip
Device manager sees 3 devices in com ports
It was unlocked when I acquired it 3 months ago... I have been using a Verizon sim...
I think it tried to download the June ATT firmware....
I use it in my jeep, tethered to my android head unit.
Anyone know how I might recover this?

Been futzing for days...
So not long after posting this....Battery out
Unplugged
Holding down top button (like a million times before)
Plug it in
Blue/Red flashing led
Software download screen
I had it plugged into my laptop
So I dropped a firmware onto the FDT exec... and the downloading firmware screen started working....
Some time later it was back....
Yes I have a netgear firmware - not the AT&T
So far it's stable... battery is charging again too
Sadly - I bought another on ebay already...
But since I have 2 hotspot plans... I will just take and use the new one to replace the Vz one...
All in all - with the exception of these formware issues... these are by far the best hotspots out there.... and I have owned 6 different others....
