Night hawk xr1000 Lightning stuck house. Need help
I have a problem. I think when lightning stuck my house. It fried the internet port on my router. I know for sure it fried the power cord to the router and the internet port to my modem. I just want to make sure before I purchase a new. That there is not something I can do to fix this. Spectrum cable already came out and replaced the modem because no signal was coming from the internet port and the cable line coming from the adapter on the house to the modem.

- Few things to try:
Factory Reset
Upgrade/downgrade firmware
Re-upgrade using the TFTP method
If it's still not working then likely fried unfortunately. Any progress on this?
