Nighthawk M1
The modem operates, but when, on my browser, I go to "192.168.1.1/index", the username is: 'admin', then enter the device password but the login fails. The message in red says 'admin' is incorrect. Apart from not knowing what it should be, it cannot be changed!! Nighthawk M1 - MR1100 - Windows 10 - desktop computer- using only LAN cable connection to computer. How can I fix this login issue?M1 Nighthawk mobile app
Just purchased my nighthawk M1 router through Telstra online in Australia. In the quick setup guide it says 'Download the NETGEAR Mobile App' and gives the download link at netgear.com/mobileapps , however, when I type this address into my browser it just says 'page not found', so then I search the website for 'mobile app download' and 'nighthawk M1 mobile app' and it just brings up manuals and netgear community questions, etc, but no actual download page link. So then I search the site for nighthawk router hoping it might have the app download link there and find a page with some very spacey looking nighthawks, but no nighthawk M1 shown. So where is this mobile app and have I bought an outdated model? Cheers, Beau
Nighthawk M1 No option to turn off wifi when ethernet is active
I always plug AP mode router to my modem using ethernet port. My router already have dual band wifi with high dbi antenna. So each time i connect my router, I have to disable internal builtin wifi in my modem to avoid clash channel. To disable both 5Ghz and 2.4 Ghz wifi, i need to use netgear webapp feature to access my modem. There is no option to turn off wifi in netgear android app. So each time i have to access web before I can connect my AP router. then if i want to disconnect, I to access web again to enable first before disconnect. I have to use browser to access netgear web. Better if netgear can provide option to turn automatic turn off wifi when ethernet port is active, then modem will turn on again wifi when ethernet port not active or disconnected. Sometimes if i turn on wifi in menu (in webapp) , my 5Ghz SSID also change to default with _5G at the back.. and i have to go to other menu to set again. There also option by set wifi standby, and wifi will turn off after no one connected.. but i have to check every device to make sure they connect to my AP router SSID, not the modem.
