How to configure Nighthawk M1 as 4G Modem only
Hi, I need some help please in configuring the Nighthawk to be a 4G Modem only (no router or wireless). Current Set Up: - Billion BiPAC 700 4G/ADSL Router + All current equipment is co...
Are you sure you want passthrough? Why not just disable DHCP on the nighthawk and plug the ethernet into your nighthawk.You will have to set the ip of the nighthawk as your gateway in DHCP of your router. But it should work fine as internet access for your lan that way.
Hi MicW
Please can you provide a few more specifics on the settings, as I am not too knowledgeable.
I have the nighthawk m1 connected to a ASUS router. The ASUS has set up a separate sub-network 192.168.2.1-192.168.2.255, while the m1 has a network 192.168.1.1-192.168.1.255. If I disable DHCP in the m1, what other settings do I change? I am assuming I turn on DMZ in the m1, but to what address do I send it? Do I change any other settings in the ASUS, presumbaly I have to tell it to communicate with the m1 but how do I know what address to tell it? Thanks.
Hi Jr2004
sorry for the delay in replying, I just noticed your question. What else you need to change is to make sure the gateway address is set an address within your routers subnet (eg: 192.168.2.1 as long as nothing else has that address!). And configure the DHCP of your router to point to it as the gateway for your network so you still have internet access. You won't need DMZ
Also make sure you only have the one DHCP running, very important
- Can we please get an update on bridge mode firmware release. Usb will do for now but Ethernet would be far better...
