What's that? M2100 is not a Netgear model number.
Do you man MR2100?
While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge.
You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:
Mobile Routers, Hotspots & Modems
Those things are very different from the standard Netgear routers covered in this section

Is this the latest one ? There's no driver support available on the website, the only downloads are the ios and android apps. Really poor for a £400 router
Perhaps you need to look into how Netgear provides updates for those devices. It is all in the manual.
