I made two changes this morning and then rebooted the router. It did not come back. The web page will not load, and I cannot even ping the router (no route to host). The changes were:</p>
<p dir="ltr">1. Enabled USB support for an external hard drive<br>
2. Enabled SSHd with a public key</p>
<p dir="ltr">I have rebooted the router in the past (ie before I made these changes) and the router always came back.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I then removed power from the router for a minute and reconnected power, and it still does not respond to pings or web page access. I also tried connecting the USB drive, thinking it might need the drive to mount, and still no joy.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Short of wiping out all my settings, is there a way to get back into the router and remove these changes? And how do I find out the cause of the problem?</p>
<p dir="ltr">Thanks,</p>
