firmware update failed... is my router dead?
« on: August 15, 2015, 06:56:08 AM »

I tied to update the firmware on my dir-615. downloaded the current configurations - then installing the new one. but it failed consistently which caused the entire internet to stop working. and plugging my modem directly into the pc wasnt working so i tried reinstalling my router because i couldn't get on the internet at all... thats not working either.

Now i have a router that is just showing a orange power light and its saying "network connection failed" when i try installing it.

I have reset my modem and now i'm able to get online by plugging it directly into the computer but I can't log in to the router with the ip address anymore to upload the old firmware even.

and its still saying "network connection failed"

Is my router dead?
