Nighthawk X4 AC2200 EX7300 not working failed update

Question

Nighthawk X4 AC2200 EX7300.
I made a mistake downloading a firware update. I downloaded it thru another network instead of the extender network. I went thru all the process to download the update, but at the very end when the Extender was suppose to reset the process stopped, lost wifi connection.&nbsp; There's no extender network in the available network list. Now it doesn't work at all. The power led is blinking. The factory reset doesn't work, the WPS button doesn't work either. I've tried connecting via Ethernet to my laptop but can't make a static connection work.
What can I do?&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Anyone?

Make sure first that your Windows has the TFTP option ON (How to: https://www.howtogeek.com/250228/what-windows-10s-optional-features-do-and-how-to-turn-them-on-or-off/ ).
