AC2200 Nighthawk X4 WiFi Mesh Extender Model EX7300v2 Amber/Orange Led
Hi guys.
I need help with this device. It got stuck on the amber/orange LED. I tried to reset it many times but nothing happened. I even tried to upload firmware with TPTP and nothing. It seems there is no connectivity. Any tip? Thanks!
If you can't get it working with tftp or nmrpflash, then it might be a hardware warranty

what is orange/amber? What led?
if tftp doesn't work, nmrpflash has worked for some. But even with tftp, its sensitive to timings. sometimes you have to try a few times.
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
https://github.com/jclehner/nmrpflashIt just shows that light with no changing or blinking at all
try tftp again. again its sensitive to timings.
nmrpflash is a little less sensitive so you can always try that first
