R7000 Tomato flash

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
