Using MR1100-100EUS Without SIM Card via Ethernet (WAN Mode)
I am the owner of a Netgear Nighthawk MR1100 (model MR1100-100EUS), currently running firmware version NTG9X50C_12.06.39.00.
I would like to use the device without a SIM card by connecting it to a wired internet source via the Ethernet port. However, I cannot find an option in the web interface to switch the internet source from cellular to Ethernet (WAN or Cradle mode).
Could you please confirm whether this functionality is supported on my model and firmware version? If so, could you provide instructions on how to enable it?
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

It should be called data offloading. Simply connect the ethernet and enable the offloading. This att page goes over it. https://www.att.com/device-support/article/wireless/KM1318032/Netgear/NetgearMR1100
Its working now! Thank you so much!
Glad you got it working. Might mark it solved so someone else isn't still trying to fix it for you :)
From what I know, the MR1100-100EUS doesn’t usually support Ethernet WAN without a SIM card. It’s best to check with Netgear support or see if a firmware update adds that option.
