ac1900 r7000 power light staying amber

[Cablecons]

I tried to set my AC1900 R7000 as an extender but after making changes and saving them the router doesn't do anything.  When I power on it goes through the light sequences and then the amber light stays solid. After about a min or so it seems to try and restart and amber light stays solid again over and over. I tried TFTP upload but the amber light does not blink to click the put button.

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you

What does a 10 seconds reset button press and release do? 

[Cablecons]

Nothing. I've tried holding 30 seconds and longer

Have you tried the 30-30-30 reset as last resort? If this fails then router may need to be replaced.

[Cablecons]

No. I do not know what that is

While the router is powered ON, press the reset button for 30 seconds, then after 30 seconds, while still pressing the reset button, pull the power cord from behind the router. After 30 seconds passes while still holding the reset button, plug in the power cable, keep pressing the rest button for another 30 seconds. After 30 seconds passes, release the reset button. 

Can do a search on line for this as well. 

[Cablecons]

Still the same

Router needs replacing. Sorry. 

[Cablecons]
