MR60 Satellite FW corrupted, will not connect
I've owned the MK63 mesh system (MR60 with two MS60 satellites) for over 1 year with no major issues. Recently upgraded the FW using the app to v1.1.6.122. The FW pushed through the MR and one of the...
Thanks for the input. Tried refreshing using PC and failed, did it on a Mac and took 2 minutes. The odd part was that during the re-flashing, the light of the device is supposed to be "Amber". Instead, it was slow pulsing white, which meant issues with the FW.
For reference:
Fast pulsing white = attempting to sync to router
Pulsing Amber (or Slow pulsing white) = firmware corrupted, no connectivity
Solid blue = synced to router, connected to the internet, all good
Solid Amber = unable to connect to the internet or synced (offline)
Further UPDATE:
I found instructions on how to update the firmware for NETGEAR routers using TFTP. I downloaded the latest firmware from the MS60 support page and then I followed these instructions:

However, the firmware update stalled at about 40% and stopped. The satellite continued to pulse the white light at all times.
Any suggestions/recommendations?
