Hi John576,
Welcome to NETGEAR Community!

I have been discussing this with the original supplier of the device (Telstra) after loggin a complaint with them and they supplied an unlock code.
Their solution is:
Go to the device screen and check for:
- Advance settings
- Then click option SIM settings
- Unlocked device
- Enter the code
The problem is there is NO advance settings screen where I can enter this code, either on the Device itself or through the Web Interface.
