Re: R6080 took a crap during update
You can try recoving it with tftp or nmrpflash.
are you on windows? if so, follow this guide
https://kb.netgear.com/000059634/How-to-upload-firmware-to-a-NETGEAR-router-using-Windows-TFTP
just make sure you enable tftp
https://www.thewindowsclub.com/enable-tftp-windows-10
and 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.

and if that doesn't work, you can try using nmrpflash

Re: R6080 took a crap during update
Via a wired connection, you'll have to put a firmware on the router. Assuming that there isn't any firmware on it. And you can do that by using a TFTP client. Attached is a link to a Netgear article discussing this:
