Tried both of those but it didn't work, reset the device and not even able to access the UI.
If you can't get any other LEDs to show, then it may have died.
One obvious thing to try is another power adapter/transformer. They seem to die more often than routers. Anything with the same volts/amps and tip size should work.
You could try this;
- Press reset for 30 seconds
- Keep pressing reset while removing power
- Keep pressing reset for another 30 seconds while apply power
It isn't advised on newer routers, and yours may be too old for it to work, but this move isn't likely to kill your device.
But will look for a new ADSL router.
Good luck on that front. Many brands, including Netgear, have abandoned DSL. ADSLS+ like that on the DGN2200M is pretty well dead in most markets, but a VDSL modem should work.
It might be worth trying to find a modem only box. Perhaps your ISP can advise. Then you can add any router that takes your fancy, although the speed of ADSL isn't going to support many of the things that you do with faster Internet services. Even a mobile hotspot would wipe the floor with ADSL.
