I can't find anything that looks like MR6100 or even MR4100 in the Netgear support system. There are various "MR" devices. Most of them are mobile routers rather than the standard routers covered in this section.

 

While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge.

You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:

Mobile Routers, Hotspots & Modems

Those things are very different from the standard Netgear routers covered in this section.
