Router bricked after reboot
My orbi router seems to have bricked after powering down for a reboot. There is no power light when the network cables connect, nor led lights that come on when powering up. the only light is in the back where the on/off power switch is located. I've tried many times to reset the router, but it never turns color no matter how long I try to press it.
Warranty has expired, but my hardware return warranty is still good. Is there no way to get this to work besides sending into NG?
Model: RBR50| Orbi AC3000 Tri-band WiFi (Router Only)

Re: Router bricked after reboot
Check a different power out let.
Check the power adapter tip for voltage and amp. Should be same as listed on the power adapter brick sticker.
Press in the reset button on the back of the router for 15 seconds. The top led should turn on Amber or Yellowish. If it does, release the button and led should start blinking WHITE the pulsate WHITE.
If this fails, you'll need to talk to NG for an RMA...
