So i have this router but i can't get it to reset. The ip is unknown to me so i can't try to login and set it up again or flash it with DDWRT.
I've tried the 30-30-30 reset method along with different variations of the reset button and power cable i could find via google.
I've tried shorting pin 15 and 16 on the flash chip but the only result i get is the router reboots

Does anybody have a suggestion on how to reset it?
Or alternatively have a working download link for Linksys easylink?

If all else fails i guess i can set an ip scanner to work.
 
I forgot a "soft bricked" router will respond to the default ip 1 or 2 seconds right after power on so i was able to bring it back with tftp.
