Billion 6300nxl emergency recovery

[Gelectric]

Hello, my billion 63000nxl has died, the power led is solid red and the Internet light is orange. I have managed to get myself into the emergency firmware page using the instructions in the manual, the usb2 light flashes on and off while it is in this recovery mode. However when I try to load any of the firmware files from the billion website the usb2 light just continues to flash on the front of the device and nothing happens. Can anyone help me please? Thanks!

Try using a different web browser to upload the firmware, then wait around 5 minutes and reboot the device (ps make sure you have a static IP set to your LAN card on 192.168.1.100)

Thank you for the quick reply, unfortunately I have tried several computers now and several browsers and get the same issue everytime. Ip address has been set as required, webpage to upload the firmware appears and then when I select the firmware and click upload then nothing happens. Would it be possible to send the original firmware file for this router rather than the most recent ones and I could try that? Thanks

Thanks very much, I now get this message 'HTTP/1.1 200 OK Server: TCHTTPD' directly the below the upload box when I click upload button but still it appears to do nothing. Do I need to leave it for a long time even though it appears to be doing nothing? The router still has the red power light on, the internet light is orange, and the USB2 light is still flashing. Any other suggestions or does the box appear to be dead? Thanks!

The recovery should not take more the 5 minutes, after 5 minutes try a reboot and see if it starts up, if it still fails it might have a hardware issue

Still no joy unfortunately, this router is a white 6300nxl that is branded 'UTV Connect' if that makes any difference? I appreciate all of your help but will be giving up soon! Thanks

One wee thing I noticed in the manual, it says that when you power on and press the reset switch that the Internet light should flash green and the Firmware upload interface should be accessible from 192.168.1.1 however on mine it's the usb2 light that flashes green the Internet light stays a solid orange? Is it looking for the firmware on a USB or is that just a mistake in the manual?
