Netgear M1100 keeps freezing and not broadcasting.

Netgear M1100 keeps freezing and not broadcasting.

I have a M1100 router that has worked perfectly up until the other day.. one morning I went to use it and it wasn’t showing up on the wifi list. I restarted it and no change. I reset it holding the back button but it did not help.. the router isn’t broadcasting a signal, I can’t connect to it via USB and then after about 10-20 minutes of being on, it stops responding.. If freezes and the only way to get it to respond to anything is to restart it.

Is there any way to do a reset/firmware update via USB?

I’ve also tried logging in through the browser but no luck there either.

Thanks

Pablo.

IF your referring to the MR1100, FW for this unit is kept here:

https://www.netgear.com/support/product/MR1100.aspx#download

 

As a full power OFF of the unit for 1 minute or more then plug back in been performed?

How would I install that FW on the M1100? I can’t seem to connect to the device at all.

This seems a HW failure. Please do a factory reset and see whether the device can be rebooted.

 

Thanks
