Netgear 785 - stuck in 'shutting down'

This little device was a gem - always working.  Since yesterday, after bringing up the device it immediately goes into 'shutting down' mode

 

I have been looking at the different posts on this subject in this community but didn't find a conclusive action.

 

What should I do to make it a gem again ?

 

 

Thanks

Hello Francismartens

 

Have you tried a factory reset? If you still can not get the device to boot and it is still under warranty I suggest contacting support.

Hi,

 

Pressing the navigation and power buttion as detailed in 
https://kb.netgear.com/25853/How-do-I-reset-my-AirCard-785-to-factory-default-settings

is not helping neither.

 

Unless there is another way to do a factory reset, I will have to contact support.

 

Thanks anyway

 

Francis
