Hi RObVDN

Welcome to NETGEAR Community!

Does it say "SIM Not Installed"? If so, ensure that the micro SIM card is installed correctly. Please check this reference: http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/MR1100/MR1100_UM_EN.pdf [page 12]

If no error message pertaining the SIM card, you may need to create a new profile using carriers APN and profile information. Here's a reference: http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/MR1100/MR1100_UM_EN.pdf [page 33 - 35]

Thanks Blanca.

I have not got any "SIM Not Installed" issues and I have also created the APN for the Aldi SIM as per their instructions but, for some reason, it is not recognising or detecting the SIM card. I am working through this with the Aldi Technical Support people as well but have not yet resolved the problem. If you have any other thoughts please let me know. If I resolve my problems through Aldi Techniccal Sapport, I will also advise you of the resolution.

Thanks and regards,

Rob
