Recent frimware update bricked my ex6110

Per and email from Netgear I dl'd a new firmware and proceeded to install. I have done this many times on other routers and this should have been no different. After almost 30 mins the extender will not turn on; I only get a solid orange light. I tried a factory reset many times, perfomred a few button holding and reset pushing combos but nothing will get this extender to reset. It is "Bricked"?

This unit does not have a LAN port so there is no way to get into the unit to run a TFTP program.

Any ideas short of adding this to my e-waste pile tomorrow?
