Ethernet on my MR2100 wont work

Hi,

 

I bought a new Netgear MR2100. Everything works fine but the ethernet port of my device wont work. 

 

I tried difficults things: resetting device, update firmware, ... but nothing seems to work.

 

Can someone give me some advice, please?

 

You will do better to search in, and post your inquiry in the community that covers you MR series hardware.

    Hi YentelS,

     

    Have you tried using different Ethernet Cable?

     

    Please make sure the Ethernet cable is securely connected to both the M2 and the device you’re trying to connect.

     

    Kindly access the M2 settings page, go to Settings > Setup > Mobile Router Setup > Ethernet Standby > select disabled > Apply

     

    Here's a reference of how to access Mobile router settings page https://kb.netgear.com/000060946/

      Hi Blanca,

       

      I tried different Ethernet cables: cat 5, cat5E, cat 6, cat 6A U/UTP - U/FTP - ...

       

      Nothing seems to work...

       

      The setting that you propose I allready did that, but that no seems the solution.
