Lighning Strike

There was a thunderstorm today. When I came home, all the LED's on my router were flashing at the same time on and off. I turned it off and turned it back on thinking it would reset it, and they flash just the same. I've tried the reset button but it doesn't help. How can I tell if my router is just fried from lightning?

    Hello drew4242

     

    Hold down the reset button to factory reset the unit.
