EX7700 firmware 1.0.0.210 FAIL

[IslandEd]

Just tried updating the firmware using the so called fancy app and now the extender is bricked, screwed, messed up, f@cked up! All I get is a fancy flashing green light. I've tried manually flashing the extender using the Tftpd64 software, but the file doesn't transfer. Any tips or tricks would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Ed

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

Thanks, you're a lifesaver! Much appreciated. I tried using Tftpd64, but for some reason it wasn't working.
