Netgear Nighthawk M5 MR5200 WAN issue
Hi, I have a Netgear Nighthawk M5 MR5200 (ip address 192.168.1.1) that is working with the IP passthrough and it is connected to the WAN port of an Asus AX11000 (ip address 192.168.2.1). I can acces...
I seem to be encountering the issue identified in this thread as well.
I am on AT&T here in in the US with my MR5200 connected to a Netgear R7000P router.
MR5200 becomes inacessible with no connection to the main router every few days (but only in the morning after a night with presumably no data activity). Nevertheless, the device itself reports on its screen that it is successfully connected to the AT&T cellular network.
The MR5200 replaced a Netgear 2120 modem that had no problems maintaining a solid and stable connection to the R7000P at all times.
Really no other problems with the MR5200 other than its occassional failure to maintain a connection the R7000P.
I've both a MR1100 and the MR5200.
I can confirm that wan connection (with IP passtrough) to my router is 100% reliable on the MR1100 and connection is lost after 2-3 days on the MR5200 (external IP isn't updated to the lan port). What a joke.
