    I tried USB teathering but it didn't connect. The Netgear Nighthawk's Wi-Fi network that it's looking for is no longer in my list of network connections.  It disappeared when I disabled it.  I'm using my iPhones's hot spot to connent to the internet but that doesn't allow me to connect to the app or web page I need to reconnect the router.---you're right it wont. The iphone is giving you access to the internet, not to the hotspot.   I can't figure out how to recover the M1's network, I don't see it listed anywhere.---it won't be. you disabled wifi. You need to connect to it over ethernet or over usb to connect to it.   Any other thoughts?  I appreciate you trying to help me with this...I'm stumped! Thank you.



     


    Make sure whatever device you're connecting to the hotspot, isn't on the "iphones wireless" you setup. just disabled the phone/tablet/pc that you setup to connect to usb of ethernet so it doesn't default back. but you need to access the hotspot over usb or ethernet to access it. 

     

    or just factory reset the MR1100. there's a hardwired factory reset button under the battery cover. push and hold it for 10 seconds
