Nighthawk c7800 X4S - no lights, seems bricked.

Question

My internet went down.&nbsp; Went to router and it had a slow faint red light blinking, which faded to nothing.&nbsp;&nbsp;I tried a known working power supply.&nbsp;When I plug the power supply in with the unit powered on, the bottom 6 lights flash white for an instant as the cord is connected, but nothing happens, the unit remains black.&nbsp;I've held the reset button for 30 seconds with the on/off in on, and 30 seconds in off and 30 seconds in on, multiple times, it still doesn't come alive.&nbsp;&nbsp;I saw that there might be a TFTP repair for other similar units, but as I started to follow the instructions i went to the download center and there is no software for my unit.&nbsp;&nbsp;What do I do now?&nbsp; I guess this one that I bought is an older one from Netgears registry.&nbsp; Any help appreciated.

If you tried a different power adapter with same volts and amps and nothing seem to bring it back, I would presume the unit needs to be replaced. Might contact NG support to see what options you have:
