Hey , thnx for responding , that was the first method I tried but like I wrote in the post the mr1100 is looping I cant restore it to factory is unresponsive , not to every button on it but to everything, I cant make it comunicate with the pc by putty or FDT, when you say connect by USB , you mean c-type connector or the other USB male-to-male cable? belive me I've tried many times with no success

The USB connection is C-type (on the MR1100) to your PC (A type).
This opens a connection that is different than Wifi or ethernet.
Are you factory resetting the device with the paperclip button under the SD card slot?
How many seconds does it take to cycle from one reboot to the next?

Mine is doing the same exact same thing reboots about every 5 seconds and can't connect to putty

Hey my friend, I managed with all this crazyness finally flash the freaking thing, does your router keeps rebooting and at the end just the red-blue light stays flashing?
- icarusponyOct 07, 2020LuminaryIf you flashed it, you need to factory default it using the 30-30-30 method.
Remove battery and connect USB C power.
Hold button 30 seconds.
Pull power out, while still holding button for 30 more seconds.
Plug USB C power back in, while still holding button for 30 more seconds.
So you should be holding the button the entire minute and a half.

Yes I did try with the reset button too, pressing it and letting it go when when the device starts , I did it with battery ,without bat,with SIM card and without, and it restarts around 5 to 6 sec each time maybe 5 times and then stopd and the LED starts blinking red and blue for a while then it goes orange and thats it, that is all it does just one more thing if i keep pressing the power button when I connect it to the usb it goes to a DOWNLOADING SOFTWARE screen but nothing happens
- icarusponyAug 07, 2020LuminaryWhile on that "Downloading software" screen, neither Telnet nor FDT work?

Nop, The the PC recognizes it but not as a modem , it gets recognized as "Remote NDIS Compatible Device" I dont know what that is, any tips?
