Got an email recommending update. I used the Netgear App to update. Click, Download,Install. Easy. But, the power light blinked constantly white. waited 35 minutes for the hair-ball to clear. Didn't. All devices are dark. No internet, ROUTER BRICKED. Mac OSX environment.
Tried every idea I had, tried ideas online and here (had to use my phone).
Had to go buy a new router (imperiative that I get back in business now). Not happy having to replace my 2 yr old R7000. Hopefully the new AC3000P lasts longer.
