r8000 update firmware via usb
my power light stays on and is solid amber. I can't access the router via pc/web interface. Can i somehow update the firmware via the USB ports on the back of the router to try resurrecting it? If so, how can that be done?
thanks.

No.
Can try this:

Need to press the reset button for 30 seconds then release, then it send to PUT the command and upload the FW.
Or try this if TFTP doesn't work:
