Netgear EX7000 Firmware update failed

Question

The recent firmware update to my Netgear EX7000 failed. Now I cannot talk to it.

After rebooting the two wireless range icons are steady amber and the device to extender icon is flashing green.

A factory reset does nothing to these icons and the WPS button has no effect either.

Can this extender be recovered and if so how?

I have found somebody else having this same problem a few years ago and he got no replies. For the cost of raising a Premium Support call I might as well buy a new extender.

But, replace IP address 192.168.1.10 by 192.168.1.127 and Gateway address 192.168.1.1 by 192.168.1.250https://kb.netgear.com/22688/How-to-upload-firmware-to-a-NETGEAR-router-using-TFTP
