I am currently trying to fix it using nmrpflash but when I use the nmrpflash -L to determine the correct network interface, it says that no suitable network interfaces were found.

what command was it? Might help someone else if they're having that issue

Replace netx with the proper net port that the router is connected to and replace firmware.file version with the name of the firmware that you downloaded.
