[Marcus1981]

I have my netgear plugged into my tplink Archer c50 router and everynight I have top reset nighthawk because I lose connection! I have wifi off on my nighthawk and use the tplink for wifi! Any suggestions on how to fix the issue?

Hi @Marcus1981

Welcome to NETGEAR Community!

Kindly access MR1100 settings page and make sure that Ethernet Standby and WiFi Standby settings are set to disabled. 

Access UI > Settings > Setup > Mobile Router Setup > Ethernet Standby (disabled or 2 minutes)

Access UI > Settings > Setup > Wireless > change WiFi Standby to Disabled.

I have the same problem and have read something about the battery and the charger causing the router to overheat. I just made the changes you suggested, hence disabled the Ethernet Standby and WiFi Standby settings. We shall see.
