what's your network setup? after a factory reset do you see the WiFi SSID and when you connect to it you're not able to access the router?
this is strange indeed. have you tried connecting via WiFi from another device? alternatively, how about connecting an ethernet cable and using a laptop to access the router?
maybe others can suggest other workarounds. hang in there.
What are the led's on it doing?
Did it randomly start or what happened to cause the disconnect?
You've tried a reset. Have you tried recoving it vai tftp?
are you on windows? if so, follow this guide

just make sure you enable tftp

and here's a video walk through.

and if that doesn't work, you can try using nmrpflash
- In addition to all the above, what do you see when you attempt access? If you check the IP on the device itself for the connection, what does it say?
