Nighthawk M6 PRO Wifi sleep mode from booting
When I boot up my M6 pro (MR6500 - 1TLAUS) wifi icon appears with "zzz" and no wifi network name appears although i have on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz and the wifi standby is set to never. Tried to do fact...
Has there been any resolution to this? I am having the exact same issue and cannot get the WiFi out of sleep mode. I cannot even access the web interface to verify the settings.

did you buy yours new? if its bought as a refurbished or renewed item, then wifi must have been disabled by the previous user. Sounds like you are locked out of the web GUI too. Do you have the correct password to get in?
Yes, I bought it brand new from Telstra Australia. I can connect to GUI with network cable. I have tried also cellular only but no success. Unfortunately Telstra has locked the GUI and I cannot manually update the firmware. I believe this would solve the problem.
