Maybe possible to use a serial cable from your computer to reflash the firmware onto the router you will to open the router up and connect wires to the routers circuit board instructions can be found the web if you feel that you are up to the job.
Hi William,
I am up for the job are you able to point me in the direction of the instructions on the web?
