JNR1010-Power Failure during firmware upgrade
Hi, I was upgrading the router firmware when power went off at my home. Now the WiFi is not working. It only show power light. Status: Default Gateway is blank when my computer is connected to ...
Finally I was able to resolve the problem.
1. Manually set the IP to 192.168.1.X. Pinging through command prompt still doesn't show any positive results but it was showing packets sent/received in windows netowork settings.
2. Restarted router and after few seconds open 192.168.1.1 through browser. This was showing a page where I can upload the firmware of router. Earlier I was doing it through Chrome and it was not working. When I tried it with Internet Explorer, the router was perfect within few mins.
I'm finding it very difficult to identify boot loader time window as when I switch on the router, within few seconds it shows continuous green light (no other color shows in it). I'm unable to ping the router as well with 192.168.1.1.
"Even in professional world they don't just update f/w beause there is newer version." - Lesson learnt :D
If you are unable to ping it is impossible to use tftp method. Time for a replacement router. Or if you insist
do you you know anything about JTag or serial console? That's only way left to access your router.
Haven't heard about it. Will start reading about it and update if I get a solution.
