Nighthawk M2 Bridge Mode or IP Pass Through

Hello,

 

I am based in Australia and have a Telstra 4G Netgear Nighthawk M2 that I would like to be able to use as a modem that feeds an Internet Connection to a Ubiquit Edge Router X.

 

I would like to have the Edge Router X do all the routing in case the modem goes down. Plus I want to be able to use other features of the router that the Nighthawk cannot provide.

 

Is Bridge Mode or IP Pass Through an Option? Is there a software version that can facilitate this or is there a work-around.

 

Please Help

    Does Telstra have anything to say?

     

    What does the manual for the MR2100 tell you?

     

    If you visit the support pages:

    Support | NETGEAR

    you can feed in your model number and find the documentation for your hardware.

    Things like IP Pass-Through Mode and Disable the DHCP Server Feature in the Mobile Router might be worth investigating.

    But with luck someone who has done this will step in with some proper advice.
