GT-ax11000 dead??

[HowieDoin]

Hi everyone. So I tried to factory reset my ax11000 using the different methods and it is just not working. Only the first 3 lights light up (from left to right) as shown in the photo. I tried the restoration tool on my Mac and it successfully loaded the latest firmware, but same result with the lights. So, no way to get into the gui. It had been working fine until I tried to factory reset, I was preparing it to sell. Any ideas out there?

Thanks,

Disconnect the power cord at both ends. Leave the router power button on for 10 minutes. Toggle off the router power button. Plug in the power cord, then power on the router. It's a long shot.

Tried what you said, same results unfortunately. Thanks.

Try a "Hard Reset".

1. Turn the router off.
2. Press and hold the "WPS" button and turn the router on.
3. Power light is on (keep holding the WPS button).
4. Release the WPS button after the power light is off.
5. Reboot your router by manually pressing the power button.

Thanks. Tried that, but same results.

Hi HowieDoin.

Did you ever resolve this issue?
I think that I am having the exact same problem.

Hi Ralph,
No, I’ve had no success unfortunately. I had a read of your thread and they do appear to be identical problems. It’s sitting on a shelf in my home office until I tackle it again. I’ve tried all of the same remedies as you as well. .
