blinking power LED, interrupted Firmwareupdate? N900 WNDR4500
Hello,
a few hours ago, the N900 router lost the connection to the modem for a few seconds. This happened all the time, so I've shut down the router and then turn it on again.
Now the Power LED is blinking green all the time. I have red, that this could happen if a firmware update is interrupted. Now i dont know what to do. I wanted to reset the whole router, but the router does not restart after pressing the reset button for 10s (I have wait for 10min now).
It would be nice if u canhelp me ;)
best regards
Nils
no, i can not ping the router and i cant open the the URL 192.168.1.1 / 192.168.0.1
not even the modem can spot the router.
we use an easybox803a by vodafone as a modem. The wireless lan of that box is really bad, so we got the netgearrouter to expend the range. the N900 is connected to the easy boxes lan port.
