After updating and reboot, screen hung on redirect. After waiting 10mins, I went to the router home address and tried to log back in. After entering user/pw, the router threw this error:
Tried just turning the router off and back on and got same result. Decided to factory reset, and I got a partial wizard that allowed me to set things up at least. Then the redirect threw this error again.
I now cannot get into the router to modify any settings, and apparently factory reset doesn't restore the firmware version. Been on hold with 24/7 support in queue for over 30 mins now. I guess at least I have internet access and the wi-fi setup worked so I have that too. But outside of that I can't set ANYTHING else. This is thoroughly disappointing!!
Edit: Confirmed I used the correct firmware for my router version. Attempted login using a private browsing window and no errors. Something changed in the firmware versions that one of my browser extensions was blocking and wouldn't open in a regular window. Am able to access all settings now. 😊

Great to hear you got it sorted, thanks for posting your solution!
Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
