Hi Viewpoint
Welcome to NETGEAR Community!
Please check APN profile settings as it may not have automatically setup the APN profile for your service provider. You can manually set it up via the WebUI and re-check connection.

I checked the APN settings and they are correct. It is detecting them fine. This 4 month old device is almost unusable after the newest update. Anyone have any other ideas? It always lasts longer after a factory reset, then when it starts problems, it won't last a few minutes after a reboot.
(DONT UPGRADE UNTIL THIS IS RESOLVED) SAME PROBLEM ! I manage 28 of these units for my company. I made the mistake of updating 4 of them to the current version.
All four units now have major issues with internet connections. Units were updated from NTG9X50C_12.05.05.00 to NTG9X50C_12.06.08.00 The MR1100 units are unlocked, no suffix letters or numbers after the model number.
Symptoms: the unit itself will stay connected to laptop but only randomly connect to internet at startup. Will disconnect and not recover access. (Cell service is NOT the issue. These conditions happen even with strong cell signals)
Half the time, even with no access, WiFi indication on task bar will still say "interent access." The other half of the time, shows "no internet access" warning.
No change to symptoms after factory reset, checked APN, that's fine. In auto mode and provider is there.
I went through all settings to make sure nothing was changed or different. Could not find anything obvious
I downloaded .05.05 version and attempted to back rev units. Getting "Invalid file code 16." (I see that problem is floating all over the forum as well) I will continue to look into that issue and hope to back rev until a solution is found.
I have the correct version for this unit according to NetGear support /download.
If anyone has light to shed, I would appreciate it! Thanks

- I’ve found a work around this think. Remove the batteries, power it via the cord only. Factory reset recheck “ wireless standby(disabled)” also make sure Ethernet standby is disabled. It’s defin a stand by issue with think. Regardless, I’ve had internet for 4 days now after removing the battery. Others have similarly found a resolution through this it seems.
How is this an accepted solution? This didn't resolve this individuals problems.
I'm also having similar issues since this update.
Wow, I know others are having this issue, why is it not being discussed more on here, or being addressed by NETGEAR?
