MR6150 cannot send SMS messages
I have an MR6150 mobile WiFi router.
I cannot find a way to send an SMS using the MR6150.
I have tried directly on the router and using the web interface to the router.
I can receive and read SMS messages on the router.
This functionality was available on previous Netgear mobile WiFi routers but seems to be missing on this router.
Am I missing something or has Netgear removed this important functionality on their new (very expensive) mobile WiFi routers?
I need this functionality since my data provider requires me to send an SMS message to upgrade my data as I use my allocation.
If it has been removed how can we request the functionality to be made available in a firmware update?

It is not a supported function. The firmwares I have used with MR6150 did not have an SMS send function.

I do not have that functionality available on my MR6150 either.
Does anyone know how I can make a feature request to Netgear to add this functionality to a future firmware update?
