1. did you try a factory reset?&nbsp;
2. or removing the battery?&nbsp;
3. is your battery charged or using an approved charger? (i've seen reports that a 2.4amp charger will run it without a battery)
4. is it new? or how old is it?&nbsp;

How to do a reset if the router does not boot? It doesn't matter if it has a SIM in it or not, whether it has a battery or not, it just won't boot. Instead of a bunch of useless questions, it would be better to post the firmware, the router is switched to bootloader mode.

Hello, I replied to the previous post.You do not have a boot mode, when there are two dots on the screen and the red LED blinks - in 99% of cases this means that the firmware of the router is damaged or it is malfunctioning. To check, remove not only the battery but also the SIM card, reboot - if the router does not boot, then there is a problem in the firmware or a malfunction. If you have a certified Netgear service nearby, then you are in luck and it is better to go to them.
