MR6110 Unable to connect

Hello
I’m getting the message “unable to connect to network” when I enter the WiFi password for the MR6110.
Please advise
Matthew

  • well, it could be the wrong password. 

    Do all devices have issues or just one? 

    Did you go in and check the password? 

    Or try changing it?

        1. what wireless card in the laptop? 

        2. what security method are you using on the router? wpa2? wpa3? wpa2/wpa3 mixed mode?

        3. Seems strange that everything works fine except for 1 device. Tends to indicate a device issue and not MR6110 issue.

      My laptop has the following wireless hardware:
      Realtek 8821CE Wireless LAN 802.11ac PCI-E NIC
      Driver version: 2024.10.141.0
  • I would go back and install an earlier recommended driver from your support page. I have seen drivers that are not from ASUS not work properly

     

    Realtek WLAN Driver
    Version V2024.0.10.135

  • I'm seeing the same message intermittently attempting to connect iPhone and iPads  to Nighthawk M6 Mobile Router (MR6110 Telstra) in Qld Australia.  Netgear support tell me to contact Telstra although the device was bought at JB Hi-FI although it uses the Telstra Network.  I've connected to the router admin page from my desktop computer and checked the firmware (NTGX65_12.01.41.00) but Netgear support hasn't confirmed if there's any problems with this firmware when using the Telstra 5G network
