the troible in de-bricking rthis route is that you may need tolder bits to the board
instead of adding this feature Netgear decided to save some minor expenses on a model aimed for tweak and experimentation
Hi everyone, this is my first post.
This is all my fault, I know: I flashed my 3500l with a tomatousb fw, but did not change the fileextension to bin. As a result, the router does not boot anymore. Power LED lights up as it would normaly do, so does the corresponding ethernet port indicator LEDs when a cable is connected.
I can ping it for about 2 to 4 seconds after a hard reset (guess thats because CFE is giving the ping response, right?).
I already tried to tftp a new firmware, even with binding the routers MAC to eth0 (on OS X):
sudo arp -s 192.168.1.1 00:70:A4:C3:56:T5 ifscope en0
tftp 192.168.1.1
>tftp binary
>tftp trace
>tftp put firmwarenamehere
This all failed.
So my I ask: Is ther hope? Would it be my last chance to get a USB TTF adapter an debrick it over the serial console?
Thanks in advance,
Thomas
