    This is what I did….. I powered on the router. The blue led started out by being on and not blinking. I waiting until the blue led started to flash then I waited for the blue led to go steady, which it did, then I hit the reset button and kept it pushed in. After about 5 seconds or so, the power led started blinking, but also the internet led and the two wifi leds were also blinking in unison. When they all started blinking, I let the reset button go and then all four leds stopped blinking and stayed solid. They never blinked again. 10 minutes later, all four leds are still on, no blinking. If the router decided to reboot, how would I know? Thanks for the help!

    It happened recently. I tried to reset the router because I couldn’t connect to it, and I couldn’t remember my credentials. I’m not even sure if I reset it because I don’t know the procedure. I tried to reset it with the reset button by holding it down a while. I hope I didn’t brick it by trying to reset it. I’ve never put this router in production. I was busy and never had the time to mess around with it, but recently I decided to set it up. I was able to login to it when I first got it, but it was just that one time.

    Thank you for taking the time to help! I did what you said. I plugged the router back in to the power and waited for the blue power led to stop blinking. The blue led did go solid, but for only about 20 seconds, then it would blink rapidly for another 20 seconds. It repeats this pattern all the time. The led never goes solid for a long time. Also, I did not see any leds go on for the 2.4 and 5ghz. Also, I did not get an ip address on my laptop. I just got an autoconfiguration 169.254.63.226 address. I have the laptop ethernet adapter set for DHCP. I have an ethernet cable coming out of my laptap directly into one of the yellow ports on the router.
