To recover with Method 1 from the link you sent,  both the power light and the WPS light should turn on when the router is powered on but in my case all the lights are off even when router is powered on. If i connect Ethernet cable, only Internet led starts to blink on router and all other lights are off. After sometime all lights are on like in the picture and this cycle continues.

Hi, since there is no other method to recover it, it is recommended to still have a try.
