upgrade v1.0.2.74

Dear all,

Yesterday i upgrade my router to the lastest version 1.0.2.74. After the upgrade, I can't access to the ip of my router.

I make factory reset and nothing. To solve this issue, I need to downgrade to version 1.0.2.68 with tftp command !!! ( no webui access ).

Are there people who had the same issue ?

For information, my router is configured in AP mode.

Thanks

    Thanks for your reply. The pb is my router is configure in AP mode, so after reset factory when i connect to netgear ssid, i can't access to routerlogin.com because i don't have internet access.

    So currently i keep my router in version .68 and it works fine.

    Thanks for your help

    I have a R7800 in AP mode, was on .68, upgraded to .74, ran into another issue, and downgraded back to .68 just fine.

     

    Only advice: Disconnect ALL cables for a minute, plug power cable in, hold reset button down for 30 seconds, release, wait a few minutes for router to 'boot' and check what SSID the R7800 is broadcasting.  Is it the factory SSID on bottom of router (it should be).  If so, connect Wi-Fi and URL to www.routerlogin.net and sign in with admin/passwsord.  If that works -- you should then be in a position to downgrade the FW.
