       "AC1750" is a speed, not a model number.  Ever helpful, Netgear
    product packaging emphasizes speeds like "ACxxxx", but that's not the
    model identifier.  Look at the product label.

       Is that accurate?  I'll assume not, because I wouldn't expect you to
    be able to touch the firmware in a C6300.  "R<something>", perhaps?

       Define "easy".  It sounds as if you may be a candidate for the TFTP
    recovery scheme.  See, for example:

    I might not call it "easy", but many people seem to have done it.
