Hi _Y_,
Thank you for the reply.
Can you try reseating the sim card and doing a factory reset on your M1. Next, let it boot all the way up and then search for update.
Please let me know if this works for you. :]

Hi _Y_,
Please refer to the link below for your options. You are experiencing double NAT.
Use Port Forwarding
You have to set up port forwarding on both routers. On the M1, forward the port to the Nighthawk's WAN IP address. On the Nighthawk, forward the same port to the IP address of the device you want to access remotely.
Convert the Nighthawk to an Access Point
On the Nighthawk, go to ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Wireless AP and enable AP Mode. This will disable the router, firewall and NAT functions on the Nighthawk. Your M1 will become the main router. This is the better option unless there is a specific security feature exclusive to the Nighthawk that you want to use.
Please let me know if this helps. :]
