Nighthawk M1 Won't Charge when Connected Via Ethernet
Hi Team, I have a bit of a conundrum that is causing me grief at the moment. My Nighthawk M1 will not charge at all when an ethernet cable is plugged in. I am having to share it out via another rout...
Just one thought - the M1 apparently doesn't support PoE. This may be a "red herring" because the PoE pins on the M1's Ethernet port probably aren't connected and your hardware may not be trying to draw power anyway. I'll perhaps get "kicked" for this :smileyembarrassed:
Oooh apologies I should have clarified. I am plugging it in via Ethernet and USB for power info a usb wall charger (have tried various) as I figured PoE was probably not an option. But great out of the box thinking!
