Netgear Nighthawk M1 Charging Issues
Before you ask me these:
1- I cleaned the Gold contacts both on the battery and the device.
2- I soft restarted the device.
3- I took out the battery out of the device and waited for over 30 seconds.
4- The cable is not damaged nor the battery or the device it self. (I doubled checked).

Re: Netgear Nighthawk M1 Charging Issues
are you using the officially supplied charger? I couldn't find the specific power requirements but I'd check the power supply to make sure its giving the MR1100 enough amperage to fully charge it.

Re: Netgear Nighthawk M1 Charging Issues
My bet would either be the charger going bad or battery going bad.
1. how long have you had it?Lithium has an expected shelf/usage life like a phone.
2. Do you have any other chargers you could try that at least hit that charging specs?
3. Have you changed cables recently? a bad cable could reduce power supplied. Or do you have a backup cable you could try to charge with?

Re: Netgear Nighthawk M1 Charging Issues
1- If you’re talking about how long I’ve had the device for (including the battery itself). I’ve had it for about 6-7 months.
2- I have other chargers that I could use but I am not entirely sure if it’s safe to use since I am not sure about the MR1100 power requirements, I will have to do research on that.
3- I haven’t changed cables at all, the official cable is plugged into the official adapter ever since I bought the router (MR1100).

Re: Netgear Nighthawk M1 Charging Issues
It should be under warranty if it's only 7 months old. You could file a support ticket to get that process started before warranty runs out

Re: Netgear Nighthawk M1 Charging Issues
All Netgear routers have problems with battery charging. It looks like it is because router gets hot and they don't want to risk a fire. Just turn it off completely at night and charge it. I have some problems too while using a router and charging it at the same time... 810 model had the same issue.
