Pretty much the exact same thing happened to me. After the upgrade I didnt get the amber light. I gave it a while, not an hour but 20 minutes anyway. Now when I plug it into my laptop, I get a steady green light and the amber comes on for about a second and then goes off.
The device is recognised in dmesg.

I don't get an IP although I can see the DHCP requests.
I have assigned the IP 192.168.1.2 to the interface but I cannot ping or access the web interface.
I have tried the unbricking method(dozens of times now actually) and either I am doing something wrong or something is wrong with my device.
The instructions I followed are from the wiki, thus:
1. Download the latest factory image from https://downloads.lanturtle.com/turtle-2-factory.bin
2. Carefully open the LAN Turtle case by removing the two screws underneath the sticker on the bottom
3. While holding the button on the bottom of the LAN Turtle, plug the device into a computer
4. After 3 seconds let go of the button and wait an additional 30 seconds to receive an IP address from the LAN Turtle
5. If you do not receive an IP address in the 192.168.x range from the LAN Turtle within a minute, statically assign the LAN Turtle's interface to 192.168.1.2 (netmask 255.255.255.0)
6. Browse to the LAN Turtle firmware recovery web interface at http://192.168.1.1
7. Follow the on screen prompts to upload and flash the factory image downloaded in step 1
8. When the flash is complete the LAN Turtle will reboot and will be accessible again from 172.16.84.1 with the default username root and password sh3llz
I'm kind of stumped. Any one have any suggestions?
