WiFi won’t turn on after downgrading firmware XR500
Hello, I updated to the beta firmware 2.3.2.108 recently. I had some issues, so downgraded back to 2.3.2.66 and now my Wifi will not turn on and i always get the message "DumaOS not loaded yet" ...
OK,
Are you also no longer able to access the interface via your browser?
Are there no lights at all on the unit or are any lights showing orange?
Correct. No lights whatsoever except the USB2 light is on. Nothing changes that.
Tried 30-30-30 reset, tried connecting to tftp, even tried disassembling the unit and connecting to serial pins with putty.
Nothing whatsoever.

- This may sound like a weird suggestion but could you unplug the router from the power for as long as you can but at least 10 minutes please. This will let the residual power drain, then connect it again and see if there is any difference.
- Same thing. Just the usb2 light is on. The router was unplugged overnight.
Still can’t connect to it- If TFTP isn't working then there isn't much you can do. I would not ever recommend doing a 30-30-30 reset as it can cause damage to the router. I'd recommend contacting NG for a replacement if possible. http://support.netgear.com/
