Question regarding Voxel firmware
Hey everyone! Quick question regarding Voxel firmware. I have a RBK53 system (bought from Costco). I'm thinking about installing Voxel firmware only if it prevents Netgear from forcing an update. ...
Flashed Voxel firmware on and RBR50 and it was running fine. It experienced a power cycle (I knocked the power cube out with my knee :-) ) and it now beboots (fast LED flash) and then goes into a white LED pulsing varing brightness up an down). Ethernet ports are dead and I can't do TFTP, but I see that plugging in a USB drive get some activity on the drive. Any chance there is a UBS recovery trick or a way to "autorun" a firmware update to reflash this? Doesn't pulsing white mean trying to do factory reset? Thanks.

ps. this is a test RBR50 so I am not SOL but would like to unbrick this.
This really is not the best place for detailed advice on third party firmware.
Not because it is banned – Netgear never intervenes – but because this place has very few people who use this stuff in anger.
Someone may turn up with deep knowledge, but have you tried asking the Voxelites what to do? That might be quicker.
Where is the best place to find Volex experts? The one forum I found has nothing in several years. Thanks.
