R6220 second flash hang and router is restaring

Hello Community - I have some issues with router R6220

 

I have flashed it to operWRT and then I've tried to do the same to ddWRT with .img file but it failed. 

 

It hang during the flashing process after 2h I restarted the router and it keeps restarting every 10 seconds now

- no access via console/web - and address 192.168.1.1 is not pingable

 

I tried to perform a factory reset keep reset for over 10 seconds and the second and third led start flashing however still no access. 

 

I've tried with tftpd and with nmrpflash no luck no access to the device at all. Is tere any way to upgrade or recover it from USB? or any other thoughts?

 

I believe in your power thank you.

    You'll have to post in the openwrt or ddwrt forum for help with 3rd party firmware. the official netgear forum isn't going to have what you need. Plus you'll want the 3rd party firmware experts helping you to fix their issues. We're more likely to cause more problems
