Nighthawk M1 MR1100 will not connect with Keepgo data only SIM
For some reason I am getting a "Mobile Broadband Disconnected" when using a Keepgo data only SIM. I can see that the Netgear Nighthawk M1 (MR1100) uses the AT&T tower. However, it will not allow me...
Where can I download the non-AT&T firmware to install on the device manually?
The manual option for updating the firmware is not enabled. It is blocked. Can I perform manual update using the command line or another method?
If your M1 model is one that allows local upgrades, then the firmware is on the support.netgear.com site. But if it truely is the AT&T version, then only upgrade option is via AT&T FOTA (Firmware Over the Air) servers.
Can you log into your device, once logged in, put this in the browser (http://192.168.1.1/model.json) and save the output to notepad and attached here?
Sure, I have uploaded the model.json file below. This blog will not allow me to attach JSON or TXT files, so PDF.
This router is not bound by AT&T. I mean it has been paid for and the contract period has been upheld and has since ended. Therefore, this device is no longer bound to AT&T.
Can I enable the firmware update through a REST API and send JSON data to change this setting to update the firmware.
Otherwise, is there a command line tool from Netgear to connect to the device and update the firmware, to a generic Netgear firmware instead of AT&T firmware? This is my wish.
Here are the instructions for a non-AT&T branded unit (but manual option not available):
I've also tried with TFTP with the command below, but not getting error:

Need to find another way.
