I got an email asking me to update the router’s firmware. Went to the app, did the update, and when the device restarted it turned on with a solid orange power light and a white “1” light. No combination of turning off or on or holding the factory reset button for any length of time is fixing the problem. I’m super irritated and would like to have WiFi back up and running at my house. I’m deeply regretting attempting to update the device at this time.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Ok, I was able to get it to reset, so it's flashing white now. Still unsure how to move forward.
