I had some issues finding FDT.EXE, but once I got pass that hurdle, I was able to downgrade the router to release 12.05.05 and BOOM!! T-Mobile LTE service restored. Thanks, I really appreciate your help.
This is my last Netgear product purchase. I will never purchase or recommend Netgear to anyone based on their service and support.

-Thanks !!When you say your T-Mobile service is restored, what do you mean by that? Was your T-Mobile service was blocked or your data connection was not stable?
Thanks

I cannot speak for them but I can confirm for me, that the latest update did make my connection very unstable and the modem was constantly hopping LTE bands, and had to join them on 12.05.05 to get an effective working unit, the last two update have had various bugs, some of which I have mentioned in other posts, Extreme battery usuage (even got a new battery), not staying off during charging, Constant band hopping leading to unusable Tmobile LTE connections, and I could continue.
Please as a software negineer myself and have worked as a test engineer in the past. Please spend more time on testing firmwares, as this few last batches of updates have been poorly QA checked. I will likely join this poster in not buying another netgear product if this is the kind of support your team has been put to as a mark of quality...
