Anyone know what the latest firmware for the M1100 fixs?
As the title says, I just checked and noticed a new firmware is available. Does anyone know what it fixs / changes ?

104 Mb, v NTGN9X50C_10.25.01.01
There's a neat new setting under Setup|Mobile Routing for Ethernet Standby which I have disabled and testing is going well through WAN Connection to Dovado which until now I had to use with Wifi spotboost.
MR1100 seems to run a bit hotter. I have been using without battery since last fw upgrade, up to 10 days without reboot. Currently at 4 hours and counting, with no dropouts and speeds greatly improved.
Dashboard has lost data usage info, hope to see it return. No info on Telstra Community and Netgear UM is still for June 2017.

My M1 was bought out right from JB HiFi in Aus, a electronics store, it came unlocked. The reason mine didn't auto update is because I had been running it without a battery. I just finished installing it and I got the version number slightly wrong it is actually. NTG9X50C_10.25.01.00.
My previous firmware required a telstra account to display the data usage, there was no facility to set "bill date" or "plan limit"
The previous firmware it had was from July last year. There are quite a few changes from that old firmware that I have noticed :-
*The ability to disable the ethernet sleep or set for 2 minutes.
*Slight change to dashboard look
*Arlo camera support
*The lan display now displays non windows devices ip address, name and mac address as well.Also shows correct count of devices connected, previously only seemed to count windows devices.
*Dashboard data usage can now set manually the roll over day and data cap and can display data usage warnings. It also now displays amount of data left and correct number of devices connected on the M1 screen( quite nice considering I am using a Optus service). My data usage display now works.It now no longer requires a Telstra account to display data usage
*In diagnostics it now shows that it is connected to a quick charge device.
*Displays realtime current/ voltage
*Mine actually seems to be running cooler
*The M1 reboots fine without hanging now(previously used to hang on a reboot)
### RS-SINR still does not work(always displays 0dBM).
hmm after an hour with battery on charger all it says is Power state in standby mode. Its not even attempting to recharge( This is with a quickcharge 2 charger not the usless 1A charger that comes with the M1).And battery level is dropping.Before it used to recharge very quickly with the quick charge
Otherwise the M1 seems fine so far.
Thanks for the extra info hippolyte

Still waiting for some firmware love here in the USA. Just checked for updates, still on NTG9X50C_10.20.05.02 here on AT&T as of 14-Mar-2018.
Any thoughts on whether the new firmware finally allows dual concurrent band Wifi (2.4G & 5.8G) without crashing all of the time?
Any improvements in Wifi client range?
Thank you!
