Orbi RBS850 stuck on boot loop

Hi Netgear Community!

 

This is my first post and looking for a possible way to recovery my RBS 850 stuck on boot-loop.

I already already tried a usb ttl converted to read the output but no luck.

1. Plug to a desktop and set the static ip, LAN not connected

2. Plug the LAN to RBR does not show-up on my RBR

3. Using windows 11 pro tftp does not work (i think because LAN not able to connect)

4. Downloaded nmrpflash-0.9.24-win32 does not work (i think because LAN not able to connect)

5. I am able to boot on OS~DK but it does not accept any command, nothing happen..

6. I am able to set the RBS to TFTP Server recovery mode but still my LAN is not able to connect.

7. For all my scenarios my windows firewall is disabled.

        Hi appreciate for your reponse but 30-30-30 does not do anything.

        It seems that the LAN is not up hence cannot transmit the packets.
