EX6200 died after firware upgrade
Model: EX6200|AC1200 WiFi Range Extender
Updated fimware of EX6200 extender that was working fine. It finished but then stuck for a while. Now it won't do anything to reconnect to the router. I tried reset for 7, 10, 30 seconds. I tried reset for 30sec, power off, power on for another 30s. No change. Really frustrating that a working router extension is a brick now after firware update.

You can try recoving it with tftp or nmrpflash.
are you on windows? if so, follow this guide
https://kb.netgear.com/000059634/How-to-upload-firmware-to-a-NETGEAR-router-using-Windows-TFTP
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
