How to unbrick the Nighthawk R7000 using OS X and TFTP
Hi,
After spending a night on unbricking my R7000 and how I struggled to work with all the manuals out there but none of them actually worked. I thought I should share what actually worked for ...
HOLY COW IT WORKED!!!
nmrpflash worked!!! Switching to a Static IP address and turning my Wifi off did the trick!!
Also, recommend using -vvv to double check when it works. Took me two tries to nail the timing because the router has to finish restarting for the packet transfer to begin before the command times out.

Instead of posting a terse/useless problem description in multiple
years-old threads, you might get better results if you started your own
thread for your own problem, and included a few details, such as what
your router does, what you did, and what happened when you did it.
