Telstra 810S Displaying "Detecting Service" When Connected OK

I have a Telstra 810S that is showing "Detecting Service" where it would normally show "Data Left, Data Used and Days left."

This problem started after I did a reset to factory defaults.

I have done the troubleshooting with the not so knowledgable Telstra people - Taken the SIM card out, put it back in again, shut down the device, rebooted the device over and over again, and done the hokey pokey without success. I have even put a new sim in card it without any success.

The device does however WORK.

Yeah I would try that but can't find firmware anywhere and I'm not sure if it's carrier specific. Also in AU we have a host of LTE - 4G, 4GX - I've got no idea how it works. Thanks, would have been worth a try.

In reply to the Netgear Community email asking if I got the answer I needed, the answer is No. I almost had it fixed under warranty but all I could send as proof of purchase was my credit card statement. Unfortunately the proper receipt is either hidden somewhere (I've move house since I purchased it) or lost altogether. Thanks Netgear, now I have to make a 2 hour round trip to the nearest "local" Telstra store. I hope don't have any trouble with the Nighthawk X4S I've just ordered.

Well, I gave it back to Telstra to be fixed. Turned it on it's still saying "Detecting Service." According to the paperwork that was returned with it, no fault was found!!!

Sincerely netgear has a very poor support no updates no live chat difficult to contact them
They require a proof of purchase to be registered to my netgear support which is nonsense given that the device can be a gift not a purchase,all firms just require the serial number to get support
