[Firmware] linksys befsx41dead?

Well, I'm affraid I may have accidentally interrupted a firmware upgrade on my BEFSX41. I was looking to upgrade due to disconnects after 5-10 minutes of being idle. I was sure it was finished upgrading because I saw no active connections, so I impatiently closed firefox. Now...I can't connect to my router period. Each time I try to access the set up page via my browser I get "connection refused by 192.168.1.1". I've tried resetting everything, tried hooking it up using a different machine, but when I turn it on the red "Diag" LED keeps flashing in about 1 second intervals and I cant access the set up page. Have I killed my router? Hoping someone can help me out...otherwise there goes a lot of wasted money.:(

Try these in increasing order:

1) »Linksys FAQ »The Loooooooong Reset to the rescue
2) »Linksys FAQ »Help! My router is dead after I upgraded firmware!
3) »Linksys FAQ »Help, my router is still dead!

and as a last desperation measure:
