WNDR3700V2 lost my web interface after 1.8.1 upgrade

Hi, I was on 1.6.2 on my Netgear WNDR3700V2 and decided to upgrade to 1.8.1. I opted for not attempting to save settings, so got a default installation.

It was all done pretty quickly and came back up fine. I logged in and restored my backup.

The router rebooted OK and seems to be working, but I now can't access the Web UI. I can SSH into the box, using the restored password, so I am assuming the restore worked.

Any thoughts on how to get the Web UI working again, please?

Thanks

Phil

This is the problem

Fail-safe reset is the solution
