What does the Power LED do now? You may be a candidate for the TFTP
recovery scheme. See, for example:

The power light is still flashing. I can't use the tftp hack because I cannot access the router at all. It does not boot either the new or the old image. So, I can't http to it. It's not coming up at all.

Thanks for the suggestion though.
