Thanks JohnPeng, my IMEI ends in 7 and I don't see the firmware available to update online, nor can I find it on Netgear's support site. Any projections with other IMEI's will be able to access the firmware update?

Hello, I am experiencing the same issue. My IMEI ends with a zero and I'm not seeing an update when I manually do a check. I also checked website and states "No Firmware not availble for this model". Please advise on getting the latest update. Thank you.

If you kept seeing Update Error, please do a factory reset and check for update again. The release has been posted online for all users.
Let me know if you still have the issue.

I was able to update the firmware online and performed a factory reset via the GUI afterwards, but it seems to have retained some, but not all of the previous settings (APN settings were reset, but network selection mode was still set to manual). That said, the original issue (repeatidly dropping the Ethernet link until the DHCP lease is force release/renewed) persists. Also, I am still unable to pass traffic via IPv6 despite being issued an IP address. I will try converting to router mode to see if anything behaves differently and will report back.
