RAX45 Firmware update failure

First, thanks to everyone who responded to my query.  I tried several suggestions and still had corrupted firmware.  I did, however, find a great solution surfing through YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXhMgQS5k1o.  This came from Richard Lloyd's channel.  The process that he describes in over 30 minutes of detailed instructions worked for me.  It definitely isn't an official Netgear process nor is the preparation quick.  Richard's video can be tough to follow, he speaks quickly so I slowed playback speed to 0.75% and turned on CC and that helped make it easier to follow.  I took detailed notes.  It's a very involved process, you have to download a couple files and follow the command syntax exactly but it brought back my bricked router.  He demonstrates with a router that he intentionally bricked by pulling power in the middle of a firmware flash.  If anyone out there has a bricked router laying around you might try this.
