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.

The only solution offered to me today by Tech Support on the Telstra Community is to refer me to Netgear for an OTA repeat push, which looks to be out of my reach.
I don't think we do OTA repeat push, however there's expected to be another firmware update later this month, so if a repeat OTA update would help, that should as well.
hippolyteHard to say, personally I'd wait for the next firmware. Though maybe it would not hurt to ask Telstra if they can confirm if the replacement M1 they are about to send you shows the data usage display you are missing if you go that way.
I wonder Hippolyte, have you tried a optus sim (or optus reseller sim) in your M1 and see if that updates the data display. Just a thought, I have no idea if this will have any affect.
Any word on what fixs are in the new firmware? Such as, does it fix the Telstra data usage display issue, and does it fix not being able to update from the old firmware to the latest?
MicW I am unable get Optus reception bu I did test the sim in a Aircard 790s which performed well and showed data usage, connected devices etc.
Telstra is unable to confirm working device with new software as it will be sent from the factory.
My gut instinct before becoming embroiled in the complaint process was to sit tight and wait for the next FW.
Against the wind, I have accepted new device, but it doesn't feel right.

ArodiD has mentioned that the data usage display issue will be fixed in the next firmware release.
The replacement Nighthawk came from the factory with NTG9X50C_10.16.04.04 installed.
Screen is functioning with data usage, not showing ethernet connection, but does show in the dashboard and the iOS app.
NB: asterisk in GB used is my edit
Device is currently reporting NTG9X50C_10.16.04.04 as up to date.
