Nighthawk M1 (MR1100) firmware update
Hi,
I've got an unlocked Nighthawk M1 (MR1100) V1.0 from Telstra. Since I'm using it in another country I'm unable to have the firmware updated and it's currently running a very ancient version...
It's not valid for my firmware's version as the file upload is not available.
oh, yes, firmware upload is enabled after NTG9X50C_1.25.01.00, mine was on same version as you and tried for several weeks to upgrade the firmware via "Check for Updates" button, one day it works for no reason. You might want to keep trying for a period of time
But did you do it from Telstra's network?
no, the upgrade was done from the other country with local telecom vendor as my M1 is unlocked.
Ok, I'll keep trying.
Did you have any charging issue with the old firmware?
Mine reboots at the slightest load when powered on without the battery and when the battery is in it barely charge, stop charging and then discharges until I disconnect and reconnect the USB cable.
Disabling the WiFi and setting the device to charge only with the USB is helping a little but that's not enough.
I think the device is pretty much defective but I still want to have a chance to update it.
