TalonRahl Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Hello, I followed the instructions to update to the most recent beta for the xr500. Had to update to intermediate firmware then to most recent firmware. Worked fine. I was changing around some settings and I was getting packet loss and other things I hadn’t experienced before. So I decided to do a factory reset through the website interface. Waited for ten minutes for it to finish only for it to now simply display “dumaOS is not running”. Unplugged the router from power and let sit for 10 minutes then plugged back in. Waited 5 min then hit factory reset on the back. Tried two browsers. Still nothing. No idea what happened but pretty sure I now find myself with a completely bricked nighthawk. please help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairypusher Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 You need a second router.... You must the XR500 WAN Port connect to a second Router LAN Port. routerlogin.net/adv_index.htm 192.168.1.1/adv_index.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 7 Administrators Share Posted March 7 Use the address from above (192.168.1.1/adv_index.htm) to re-upload the firmware again and let it go through the process, close the tab wait 4 minutes then access and see if it loads correctly please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
