My AC1750 router has stopped displaying any networks

I decided to change the wifi password on my router, and that was successful, and after that, it told me there was an update available. So I tried to update it, it checked for the update, which was successful, but then was unsuccessful in the installation of it. I tried again a couple of times, but after that, the wifi didn't work and no one could connect to it. And since then I have tried resetting the router, unplugged and replugging it, resetting the modem and everything. I am now using an old router that is insanely slow, please help me.

do wired devices work? 

What firmware were you installing? 

What are all the led's on the router doing (color, blinking, solid, etc)

I was trying to install a firmware update from the mobile app, wired devices do not work, and the only led is the power led which is blinking blue

You can try recoving it with tftp or nmrpflash.
are you on windows? if so, follow this guide
https://kb.netgear.com/000059634/How-to-upload-firmware-to-a-NETGEAR-router-using-Windows-TFTP
just make sure you enable tftp

and here's a video walk through using a tftp client. Use the built in one for windows 10 though. the video is more of an example of how its done.

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