Hello.
I wanted to flash my nice shiny Netgear R7000 with Shibby. Sooooooo
I had done the initial firmware and just finished AIO and I was about to make the selection to clear nvram and I was kicked out. I can no longer access 192.168.1.1. Browser, ping or otherwise.
The correct lights on on so a brick is doubtful.
I rebooted my PC, tried it on a PC with ip 192.168.1.2 but no luck.
Where did it go?
any help is very much appreciated.
thanks, Bj
(I was unsure of which forum to use - please excuse the cross post)
Have you tried command via cmd: "nslookup" ?
It will give you correct router address.
Hi. Great idea. It does come back as 1.1
Now if I point my browser to 192.1681.1 it asks for a password. I need to clear nvram.
A 30/30/30 was suggested but I'm nto sure if that will leave me in a state to upload new firmware or at the Tomato login prompt.
thanks, Bj
1. In case it lets you in (you can log in to your router) - all is good.
2. In case it says incorrect login - you will have to do hardware reset. Some firmwares has their own login and after you install it - you can't login with your own login name and password. Take a needle and push a button in a hole. Hold it for a about 15-20sec. It will reset your firmware to default settings and first time it will let you in without username / password.
3. In case hardware reset don't helps - you bricked the router. You will have to use USB cable to install stock firmware.
