R6220 Internet LED not working
As of maybe two hours ago, I can no longer connect to my router. I still have a connection if I plug my pc into the modem, but that's a PITA. Any suggestions? Resetting does nothing. I tried that tip ...

What are all the lights on the router doing?
What modem are you using?
did it randomly stop or what were you doing when it disconnected?
Can you hardwire into the router to access the gui?
Have you tried a factory reset? Push and hold reset while its powered on for 7-15 seconds. The lights should change.
Hi travistyofjusti,
1. On which device is the Parental Controls configured?
2. What is the exact model number and firmware version of the AC1900 cable modem?
3. Please make sure Parental Controls is configured on the last exit point of the network (cable modem if applicable).
4. Does the issue affect all devices?
5. Have you tried other filtering levels?
Regards,
Dexter

It's not unable to login, it can't connect to a hotspot. These mobile routers can use either Mobile Data (WWAN) or wired/Ethernet based offloading - however, there is no wireless client to establish a wireless WiFi Internet connection to the hotspot.
Not aware that mobile phones can use a WiFi connection towards the Internet (regardless if EAP-SIM, form based auth, or any other direct WLAN) while concurrently operating as a wireless AP. When enabling tethering and the mobile phone hotspot, the WiFi access to the Internet is disabled.
Ummm?? I think we missing the point..
I mean Operator give me a SIM which able to use 4G or login to Operator WiFi hotspot.
When I put this SIM into my phone and if it find the Operator Wifi Hotspot in range (like in department store), it will automatically login to Wifi Hotspot and disable 4G.
What I expect is that if the put the same SIM into M1, and the Wifi hotspot is in range, M1 should automatically login to Operator Wifi hotspot, same as when the phone is in the phone or same as when I am at home, M1 will automatically offloading to my home Wifi router.

Perfectly understood. As I said: One one hand the M1 does not have the capability for offloading to a WiFi Internet (no WiFi client, and no SIM-EAP support), and on the other hand I'm convinced your mobile phones can't concurrently use the provider WiFi hotspot and serve as a WiFi AP for tethering. Essentially, the M1 (and the M2) are mobile phone platforms with some added capabilities.
You might want to promote developing this capability with Netgear on the Idea Exchange For Home.
