Nighthawk M2 wifi not working
Hi. My M2 wifi just stopped working.
It has an X through the wifi icon. I didn’t change any settings.
I have factory reset it and still not working.
I can’t connect it to my computer as I don’t have an Ethernet port.
Please help.

- TeeJay74VirtuosoYou should be able to enable M2 wifi via touchscreen.
- ChainsawkidAspirantNope. It’s all on and factory reset. But I get an x through the wifi icon

I have the same issue, with the most recent firmware update appearing to cause the issue
Firmware version NTGX24_10.17.03.00
I've tried to enable and disable IP Passthrough, as well as enable and disable USB tethering, to force the device to enable the wifi again, but like you I have factory reset to no avail, as the wifi appears to be disabled.
Is there a CLI to change a erroneous setting to get this unit working properly again?
