I was trying to upgrade to the latest 42803( mar 2020) from a 2017 build and now the router has both 2 and 5ghz are red. I have no web access as 192.168.1.1 does not work.
The big problem is when I go to dd-wrt ssid, it wants a password. Never gave it one and don’t know what it is. I can see my Ethernet cable plugged into port 5 but no go. I have tried 30/30/30 and it doesn’t shake it loose either.

Found a laptop with Ethernet. Put the cable into port 1. Tried GUI and no connect. Ran diagnostics tool on win10. Tried again and login screen appeared. Thanks for help.
I am having the same issue. I flashed the on it and now I cannot reach it any more. I used it as an acces point with no DHCP. I am not sure if it even had a set ip address, since my router had an dhcp active.
How ever I tried you method. Lan 1 is the one on the left side, right? I gave my computer a set IP 192.168.1.4 and I cannot connect to eigther 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.2 (which was the ip the EX6200 was reachable before).
Any other suggestions? If I attach it to my network the EX6200 only works as a network switch, which is also weird...

I guess I didn't see this one before. You don't 30/30/30 this device. Only thing I can suggest is to press and hold the reset button for ~7-10 seconds, release, let it reboot and try again. I'm not going to ask what build you flashed to it. _________________ "Life is but a fleeting moment, a vapor that vanishes quickly; All is vanity"

for anyone searching this thread later on, I recommend using nmrpflash.exe to downgrade to EX6200-V1.0.0.38_1.1.52.chk from the netgear website, the oldest firmware, if you're not still on that version already. From that Netgear web gui interface on 192.168.11.1 or mywifiext.net , you can then flash a version of DDWRT relevant to the EX6200 such as factory-to-dd-wrt-r46446.chk
