ChatGPT - first error.
If you truly meant the Reset button, it isn't reset to factory but only reset config (partial at that) - only WPS button reset is a true reset (as via GUI with the checkbox ticked to clear all).

So I would Reset that properly again before any next step...

ChatGPT, you're right. I know this isn't the best way to solve problems .
The problem with writing to the USB happened even before I discovered that the GUI wasn't working. I always connected via Tailnet and used SSH to check if the scripts were up to date and possibly do an update.
Since I'm not advanced, I didn't know how to fix the script update problem myself, so I asked an AI, and with just one command it managed to make the drive writable again. The script update went fine. It was only yesterday that I discovered the GUI wasn't working and started dealing with it.
I put a new USB into the router and by holding the reset button I assumed everything got wiped. I set up the router from scratch.
Okay, so you're recommending a reset using the WPS button. Then set up the router again and finally go into AMTM – format the USB and then install everything else?

Yes, as first step reset properly. If you now have GUI aces do it from there.

After if still issue, use as recommended an external SSD in enclosure with adequate cable length.
