When switched on, performs a sort of quick check and the LED power switch quickly from red to amber to end in green. At this point begins to flash without stopping. The LED is used to power a regular basis if a cable is connected but the adapter is in fact unusable.
I tried to connect to the GUI in several ways but I did not succeed. I tried using direct ip set on the network card, I tried to DHCP, I tried using the link www.mywifiext.net and variations without success.

Is there a way to reflash the device?

I am having the same issue. My WNCE2001 is "bricked" as indicated by the flashing green power light. I have found a couple threads that talk about re-flashing the device but the instructions are not very clear. Does anyone have a more step-by-step process? Thx in advance!
