FSM7326P Not booting past U-Boot
Hi Everyone. I have a FSM7326P that will not boot past U-Boot. Something about magic number missing (firmware gone). I am starting the very long process of uploading the firmware via Serial cab...
I did the file transferr, and it just sat there afterwards. I pressed Control Break and it said 0 bytes transferred, so obviously there is some sort of EOF sequence that I was supposed to hit, but didn't.
Anyone that can assist loading firmware through U-Boot would be aoorecuiated.

Unfortunately I cannot boot past U-Boot to get to the Utility menu referenced in this article.
I can get into U-Boot and it has an option (loadb) to upload firmware through there, I just need to know the steps to do that.
Thanks!
I suggest you to open a chat or online case with NETGEAR Support at anytime for further assistance. The NETGEAR Support Team might be able to provide you with further troubleshooting steps.

I do not have a support contract, and was looking for some free assistance from the community. I am hoping someone can advise how to load firmware from uboot using the loadb command. I am sure I am not the first one that has tried to do this.
Thanks!
