I, too am having the same issue after a prolonged power outage. I've tried all of the reboots, etc, but cannot seem to get the thing to do anything but have the green light turn on at the back. The top never turns colors. Blanca_O any ideas?

Hi Patricknew
This appears to be a possible hardware problem.
Do you have a device wired to router? If so, can you please check the Ethernet / Local Area Connection status? Is it saying "Network cable unplugged"? "Unidentified Network"? "Not Connected"?
Can you still access the router settings page? When did the issue start?
Regards,
Blanca

- PatricknewFeb 27, 2019AspirantI’ve tried hooking up a computer via Ethernet and I still cannot access the settings of the router. I’ve tried factory resetting it per the support pages - the green light next to the power cable never turns Amber and the ring will never light up. This all began yesterday after a power outage that lasted 4 hours. Thanks!
