Blinking Power Light before and after TFTP Firmware Update
Hello everyone, I attempted a firmware update on my router (AC1750 - R6400 V2) but it failed. In an effort to fix the problem I downloaded a new firmware image from here: https://www.netgear.com/...
Sometimes it takes a few attempts. I usually use the windows built in client successfully.
are you on windows? if so, follow this guide
https://kb.netgear.com/000059634/How-to-upload-firmware-to-a-NETGEAR-router-using-Windows-TFTP
just make sure you enable tftp
https://www.thewindowsclub.com/enable-tftp-windows-10
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.

and if that doesn't work, you can try using nmrpflash

Thank you for the reply. nmrpflash seems to have corrected the issue. I greatly appreciate you help.
Glad it worked!
