Nighthawk 7300v2 Power Light Blinking
My extender stopped working suddenly. I have performed a factory reset, but the green power light keeps blinking instead of going to solid green.
Is there a fix for this?

did you push and hold reset for up to 30 seconds while powered on?
You can try recoving it with tftp or nmrpflash.
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.
