Please provide a model.josn file with the T-Mo SIM if possible. If it can't boot up to the dashboard, you can power up the device without the SIM card to capture the model.json file.
- Logon to the webui (http://192.168.1.1 ) as an administrator
- Navigate to URL http://192.168.1.1/model.json via the same browser window
- Capture the results (by selecting all + copy) and send it back
You can email the log to me at jopeng@netgear.com with your community ID.
