Try restoring original image:

+++ and pause to enter uManager, works even when BIOS is dead.

# download       - download complete original image

Original image are not supposed to be needed, but apperently...
It's located at:

Please note that there is a know bug in the uManager download function 
that sometimes affect the download command, you need to completely power 
cycle (not just use uManager commands) the board between each use of the 
command. Bug have been located and fixed and will be included in first 
comBIOS/uManager update.

If that doesn't work I have an additional solution.... No mater what, a 
net6501 can always recover from BIOS update problems.
