Netgear AC1200 model EX6150 never boots

Question

Hello.my wifi range extender is blocked during booting. Power led stays amber, even after I have reset the system (switch activated for more than 30 sec). &nbsp;Is there anything else to do, or shall I scratch it ?

When the powerlight is amber, it usually indicates a failed bootup process or firmware corruption.&nbsp;
You can try recovering it with tftp or nmrpflash. are you on windows? if so, follow this guidehttps://kb.netgear.com/000059634/How-to-upload-firmware-to-a-NETGEAR-router-using-Windows-TFTPjust make sure you enable tftp https://www.thewindowsclub.com/enable-tftp-windows-10and here's a video walk through using a tftp client. Use the built in one for windows 10 though. the video is more of an example of how its done. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9DLrLQrpawand if that doesn't work, you can try using nmrpflashhttps://github.com/jclehner/nmrpflash
