Hello phipo_neo,
Welcome to the community!
It appears bricked, try resetting the router/firewall using the sequence below:
- Push and hold the reset button for 30 seconds.
- Turn off the unit, continue to hold the reset button for another 30 seconds.
- Turn on the unit, and hold the reset button for 30 seconds more.
- Release the reset button and let the unit boot normally.
See if this will make any difference.
Thanks,
