Hello,
I’m using a Netgear Nighthawk MR7400 (M7 Pro) on software version MR7400_1NA1NAS_04.00 with firmware NTGX75_10.04.10.00 and have run into two reproducible issues. The first issue occurs when the SSID contains an apostrophe, such as “Hoff's Nighthawk.” In this case, the WiFi immediately goes into standby mode and will not turn back on, even though WiFi is enabled, standby is set to “Never,” and SSID broadcast is active. The only workaround I’ve found is to remove the apostrophe from the SSID (for example, using “HoffsNighthawk”), after which WiFi functions normally. The second issue involves the Cellular tab in the web interface. When the router is set to use WiFi + Cellular under Internet Options, the Cellular tab remains blank and does not display any details such as signal strength, SIM information, or network status. However, when the router is switched to Cellular-only mode, the tab populates correctly with all the expected information. This suggests a UI or firmware bug that prevents cellular details from being shown in mixed mode. Both issues are consistent and appear to be firmware-related rather than configuration problems. myccpay
