X6 R8000 - All LEDs are flashing

Hi,

I suddenly lost my Internet connection, and when I checked on the router it was just flashing on pretty much all LEDs. I restarted it a couple of times and tried to reset, but still the same.

I found another PSU with same specs, but still the same.

 

Is there anything I can do about it?

Did you try a factory reset? 

Push and hold reset for 7-15 seconds while powered on? 

potentialy the firmware could be corrupt. you could try tftp and/or nmrpflash to recover it. 

are you on windows? if so, follow this guide

just make sure you enable tftp

and here's a video walk through.

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