Model: RE220  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version:

After a firmware update of my RE220 It got bricked, it only has the power light on, and it won't respond to ethernet either. Is there a way to restore the range extender for it to work?

There does not appear to be a firmware recovery method.

 

Plug the range extender into a different outlet, wait for it to boot fully, then hold the reset pinhole for 15 seconds. If the LED lights react, see if you then see the default SSID network broadcast. If you do, you should be able to set it up again.

 

If you still have nothing, I would recommend contacting our support team.

I have tried to do so and even pressed and held the wps button and the reset button together, and by themselves for at least a minute, and nothing seemed to work. What happens when I plug the extender in is all the lights turn on, followed by the connection light turning red, followed by all the lights except the power light turns off.

@Ziphammer83 did this ever get resolved.  I am having the exact same issue?

If it is within warranty, and mine is, you can get another one. That is what I did.
