LED Power Blinking AC1750
The amber “power” LED slowly blinks. No other LED’s are on or blinking. Tried unplugging, waited 8 hours for updates, and pushed reset button. Problem persists. Any ideas what to try next?

If that is a brand new device that has never worked – it isn't clear how this came about from your first message – then back to the seller is a better option.

My R6700 has the exact same issue since morning today, I used TFTP to install the new firmware and the file is copied successfully but then the amber light blinks indefinitely, (it's the only light thats on rest lights are OFF)
I have the hardware warranty, 6 months old router however customer support says since i'm able to ping the Gateway IP and the router responds, this is not a hardware issue and needs another 50$ for providing tech support to fix this issue? the brand new one in amazon today is 79$
