R7000 dropped internet connection - will not reset. No internet on ethernet or wi-fi

My R7000 dropped its internet connection last night. I have tried to reset, tried 30-30-30 reset, to no avail. All I get is my power light blinking on and off. No problems with ISP, I was able to connect old router and get connected, but old router is very slow. No internet when wired or via wi-fi. Router is nearly one year old. Firmware is up to date, with exception of the last Security firmware update - which for some reason I was unable to update (could not connect).

The replacement unit had been received, and is working fine

Hi slowmo1817,

 

Welcome to community!


What are the lights on the router now?

Can you still access the routers UI?

My router will be 1 yr old on 4/8. I called Netgear support and they tried to assist, and could not. They determined it was a hardware issue and are sending me a new replacement router. I should have it by Friday.
