Ok, so I was taking some time this weekend to go through and upgrade all my nodes to 1.0.0. In the process, I pulled out one router (still old version), connected a cat5 to a LAN port and couldn't connect to the web page. That's when I realized it was in access mode. Connected it via a LAN port to another regular (old version) node. Connects my computer to the second node via cat5 and a LAN port, pointed my browser to 172.27.0.2:8080 and brought up the status page. Clicked on setup, changed it from access point to mesh node and rebooted.  

However, after reboot, connected via cat5 on LAN port and still no connection. In fact, the network connection shows "network cable unplugged" regardless of which LAN port I'm plugged into.  When I plug it in I get a slow blink, 1-sec on, 1-sec off. If I treat it like an access point and connect it to another mesh node via a cable, the LAN lights on both nodes flicker like normal. 

I've power cycled it several times, rebooted, etc.  no luck. Any ideas on how to get back into it?

TFTP the respective *.bin BBHN firmware to the router.
