    What are all the led's doing? blinking/solid/color etc

    Why were you trying to factory reset it?

    have you tried to reset it again? holding reset for 7-10 seconds. Sometimes it just takes a 2nd attempt.

    you can also tried the 30/30/30 method. hold reset for 30 seconds while powered on, power it off for 30 while holding reset, power it back on while still holding reset for 30 seconds.

    If none of these work, you can try resending firmware to it via tftp.
