Issue after upgrading Mikrotik RB260GS with wrong version of software  [SOLVED]

Sat Mar 02, 2019 4:28 pm

Hello, several days ago I made a mistake with updating my Mikrotik 260GS by wrong update file.
Rather than use a version 1.17 for 260GS(and RB260GSP ) is used version 1.17 than was made for 250GS.

Nowadays Switch works partly (some ports work properly), but some do not. Moreover, I tried connect to my switch by Winbox and browser, but I couldn't (Winbox showed up only other Mikrotik devices).

Today I tried to use Netinstall, but during manual resetting of my device, ACT indicator was blinking extremely fast and wasn't stopping. At the same time, Netinstall didn't showed up my Mikrotik 260GS device.

May use please suggest me how to fix this issue?

p.s. I know that I made a huge mistake during updating a software, but I hope that I'll be able to fix it. Thanks in advance.

UPDATE:
Thanks Edgars P. from Mikrotik Support, I fixed this issue. Here is what I received from support:
Netinstall will not work for SwOS devices. You can try to reinstall the firmware using TFTP. Below you will find an example on how to reinstall SwOS using RouterOS:
