Orbi Wifi 6 RBK753S shows blinking red (firmware corrupted)
Router RBK753S stopped working with a blinking red led seems firmware corrupted
Tried these
- Reset by pressing reset switch
- Update firmware through tftp - failed as it seems it cannot connect to the IP 192.168.1.1
What else can I do used for ~2 years with two satellites and was bit expensive when bought.
Thanks in advance.

You can try recovering it with tftp or nmrpflash.
are you on windows? if so, follow this guide

just make sure you enable tftp

and here's a video walk through using a tftp client. Use the built in one for windows 10 though. the video is more of an example of how its done.

and if that doesn't work, you can try using nmrpflash
