Nighthawk M6 Pro Ethernet port
After recent automatic update, Ethernet port on nighthawk M6 Pro not working. Can toggle it on/off, but has no output signal. Any troubleshooting suggestions?

I have the same hardware version and same problem. My dad has the regular Nighthawk M6 and his is also being affected by the update. He doesn’t use ethernet, but i asked him to check it out
I’ll be surprised if when you get the new one that there’s a different firmware, cause why is it available to your new one, but none of us got the update you know? Unless you don’t get the new one until an update comes out since they’re assuring it’ll be fixed

i agree. i'm not holding my breath for it to wo work, but if there's a different hardware build with for example a different modem, perhaps the firmware version is different or updated model wasn't affected by the bad update. if they don't work, i'll pusth them again to replace with the 7pro. either way, we're up and running again in bridge mode.
