Nighthawk m6 pro(MR 6500) keeps restarting (stuck in a boot loop)
So as the title implies, yesterday my Nighthawk m6 pro has been stuck in a boot loop. if i remove the sim card it will work, but when it is in, it will not work. I went to the ATT store and we replac...
So a small update, I tried turning it on after a day. It worked right away and seems to be going strong. I'll update everyone after a few hours to see if it sticks. To see if you guys can reproduce it, hold the power button and plug in the device at the same time. It should say "downloading update". I did this when I went to bed. In the morning it still said it, do I unplugged it and plugged it back in. And it seems to work now.
I also tried mine again this morning... I had read where someone had tried booting thiers without the SIM card, So I gave that a try. It booted fine. I reinstalled the SIM and it booted fine again. I left it to go to work and will see if it is working still when I get home from work today.
I am going to go by AT&T at lunch today to get a new sim card and probably vocalize my displeasure. I hope the new SIM card will do the trick.
I wonder if Netgear is aware of this issue? is there anyone that we can tag to help? I am new to this forum and not tech savvy.
Here we go again with another issue with the MR6500. I don't think they'll ever get it right. Issues like this have turned me off from ever getting a Netgear MR series hotspot. I think Inseego is the way to go now with their M3000/M3100 Pro series. They seem to have far less issues at less than 1/2 the price. Way to go Netgear.
