Nighthawk Mobile stops working
Howdy.
I just replace my old hotspot with a Nighthawk MR1100 and am having an odd problem. The mobile router will suddenly stop allowing the internet connection to devices. The router still shows a...
Hi,
I think you haven't answered the question previously asked.
When you connect to the router and the connection drops, are you still able to access the mr1100's interface at http://192.168.1.1 ?
Yes, we could still access that ip. The only thing that worked was turning if on, then back on. Would not work more than two hours at a time, sometimes only 15 minutes. I have returned the second one and moved back to my Unite Pro which still works.
If the mr1100 remains accessible when the connection disappears and that the web interface still says that it is connected to (which means that the ppp session is established). I think the issue is likely related to automatic configuration. Perhaps it is just DNS.
When the connection drops. Can you try to access http://212.129.20.209/ ? It should load a page that says "Apache2 Debian Default Page".
Can you also log in to the mr1100's web interface and visit http://192.168.1.1/index.html#settings/status then the "NETWORK" tab. Are there values in the IPV4 and IPV6 sections?
- No, I can’t do those things. As mentioned I returned it and reverted to my Unite Pro.
