Model: Deco X80-5G  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Building work in another room dripped wet plaster into a socket on the same ring as our X80-5G. The RCD for the sockets tripped, but now our X80-5G cannot be powered on: no lights show. 

 

Given that they are so sensitive, I recommend a surge protector.

 Thank you, yes, after a factory reset it does power on again.

Hi, have you tried to factory reset the Deco by holding the reset pinhole for 1s to see whether the Deco responds to the hardware reset?

It is also suggested to refer to this link to test whether firmware recovery made any difference:

How to use firmware recovery if the Deco become brick

 

If there is a spare power adapter(12 V/4 A), please also change the power adapter in case the power surge only broke the adapter

 

Thank you very much.

Best regards.
