Hello I am using the USB-Serial thing to try to debrick it. I am unable to break to get a CFE prompt at any point, and after the last line of the output it just freezes at nothing and I cant type tftpd etc. Here is the output as I press the "power" button on the router via the COM interface:

Update- I had to end up shorting the pins as indicated in another guide on this site, and the COM output indicated a TFTP server had started, so I sent a working .chk and all is well now.
