Symptoms - router doesn't boot, blinking green and red
You can also enter the router into Recovery mode by holding Reset and then connecting the power.

Recovery steps:

  1. Compile sercomm-recovery under the Linux:

  • For Turbo + with 128 MB NAND:
    sudo ./sercomm-recovery enp0s3 recovery_turboplus_stock.bin
    this file is for Turbo+ only, it isn't suitable for Turbo without plus, with 256 MB NAND

  • For GIGA:
    sudo ./sercomm-recovery enp0s3 recovery_giga_stock.bin
    where the enp0s3 network interface connected the router.
    ifconfig - list on available network interfaces

  1. Wait until the router is flashed and rebooted.

Thanks to @Kar200 for the idea and initial testing on Sercomm S3 (almost twin of Turbo+).
