Nighthawk MR5200 (M5) - We need your feedback!
Good day Nighthawk Community,
I'm reaching out to you today in hopes of soliciting your help. If anyone is experiencing any issues with the Nighthawk MR5200 (M5) Mobile Hotspot we want to hear ...
Hi,
maybe it is possible to also help with the issue we experience.
We own two MR5200, let's call one "old" and the other one "new".
We use to run "old" with a Vodafone (Germany) SIM which originally came from a "Vodafone GigaCube", some kind of relabeled HUAWEI 5G Router. This setup was running fine for about 12 Month or so, but recently we started to experience interruptions of LTE connections after 12 to 24 hours. Only a reebot of "old" would help getting reconnected.
So we bought "new", used the very same SIM card with it. We experienced, that "new" wouldn't even connect to LTE nor any other band.
So we ordered a fresh SIM card and used in "new" but experienced the very same behaviour. "new" wouldn't connect to any band.
When using the fresh SIM card in "old", we were back to a connect time of about 12 to 24 hours, but then again interruptions of the connection.
JohnPengcould you take a look at the model.json stats if we upload them?
Many thanks in advance!
Hello,
Thank you for this post. I have suggestions after security issues.
MR5200 SMS functionalities :
1) Add the possibility of blocking certain numbers from which you do not wish to receive text messages.
2) Add ability to disable sms functionality on router
Access control : Add MAC access control directly from the router interface
In my opinion it's could be very usefull.
Regards
Thierry
Hi
I come back to you for the MR5200 in N78 5G SA.
We have tested it and now it's ok : registration OK, PDU session OK. An equipment connected in wifi has traffic OK.But we notice after few seconds that MR5200 equipment send a PDU session release request to the core. I have a wireshark capture if you are interesed. We could sent you by mail.
Could you explain me why the MR5200 send a PDU session release request ?Are there any news about the roadmap of native support of 5G SA on MR5200 and corresponding supported bands ?
Best regards,
François Le Gall

Do you have a way to capture QXDM logs for the disconnection issue?

- I think the latest firmware upgrade is garbage. My device has always worked fine but now it is super slow. When I try to use the hotspot my download speed is around 1 MB. Been troubleshooting but nothing I do has any affect. This device was stupid expensive and now it's completely useless.
