Netinstall doesn't work.

RouterOS General
1

Good day.
After upgrading to 6.46.8, the cAP became a brick.
I’m trying to restore it with Netinstall by connecting it directly to the computer, but when the reset button is pressed for 15 seconds, the link falls off. On the computer, the message “network cable is not connected.”
Reflashing is not possible.

I do not see contacts on the board for reset.

Is there any other way to reset the point?

I just did it a couple of weeks ago. Herebelow are my suggestions:

  1. if you use win10 , better to set netinstall to run win7 compatibility mode
  2. turn off all firewall, etc on your laptop/PC
  3. if you have more than 1 NICs, turn off all others except the one you will use to connect the router

After the above , probably you still have to try several times to get it work.

Good luck !

If there are several network ports on the PC, disable them.
Except for the port that is connected to the Mikrotik router.
As said before, turn off the firewall. try in a different subnet.
Run netinstall as administrator.
