RAX48 Held reset too long and now power light is solid red

I was having troubles with the router. I reset it once and it did not work. So I tried again and I held it longer in case that somehow makes a difference. Now there is only a solid red light that turns white periodically (maybe for 3 seconds every 30 seconds). Did I brick this device? is there a solution?

  • You have probably put it into "recovery" mode.

    It might be simply a case of rebooting it. Have you tried that?

    If not, can you access the browser graphical user interface (GUI)?
