M1 Nighthawk (MR1100-100NAS) w/T-Mobile Broadband Connection
I purchased the MR1100-100NAS (August 2019) and I use T-Mobile for its mobile broadband internet. Initial setup (OOBE) was quick and easy. My M1 is used soley as a modem and I have an Asus RT-AX88U A...
APN/other settings?
I changed the IMEI, but still get the Broadband Disconnected error message
I've attached my APN settings.
I took a few additional steps when changing the IMEI settings. In order:
1) powered off and unplugged Netgear nighthawk
2) removed sim card
3) plugged in and powered on nighthawk
4) used a IMEI random generator for a Samsung tablet
5) used DC unlocker to change IMEI
6) powered off nighthawk, waited 30 seconds
7) inserted sim card and powered on
I did have to power cycle one more time and I was able to receive data.
You will want to make sure your sim is getting data, test it with a spare device just to rule out the sim is bad.
Best of luck!

- Still no luck. Why a Samsung tablet?
- I told TMO that this line is for a Samsung tablet đ
If my IMEI change didn't work, I was thinking I'd try the TMO international 15 gb plan because it states unlimited 4g mobile hotspot. Here's the link: https://www.t-mobile.com/support/plans-features/global-plus-15gb
If you do this, please update! Would be interested in learning.- Would it work with a cell phone IMEI? And I forgot to ask what firmware are you running? I'm feeling SOL.
