Hello,
I have a Thomson TG 585 v7 router from Sodetel, and I think it's dead now, but I'd like to give it a last hope and confirm the issue.
It went "unconscious" after falling from a considerable height.
I attempted some first aid repairs, such as hitting the reset button, unboxing the device and checking up the hardware (although I had no idea what I was doing there, I just made sure that eveything is solidly connected).
When I power it on, multiple LEDs light up at once, which isn't a normal behaviour I assume, I couldn't find anything like that on the web.
Each of the following pictures is one stand-alone attempt to power on the modem, in which every try lights up these LEDs at once, no light changes colour or shows up after that - no particular order:

At that time, the only cable connected was the power cord, no Ethernet, no DSL.
Probably, it's out of service forever, but maybe some magic would make it work again ? Is it repairable ? Any good and cheap router to replace it ?
Cordially.
PS: there is no way I could access into it, connecting the Ethernet cable would do nothing, absolutely nothing.
