I've got it setup, firmware updated, but I'm unable to change specific settings like WIFI settings, even disabling/enabling wifi is not enabled, either on the device or through http://attwifimanager/. A number of settings are simply greyed out and you're not able to interact with them. After factory resetting, I notice the settings are interactable for a brief time before the device restarts (out of no where) - I was actually able to update the wifi standby setting before the restart happened. Then they return to being disabled, grey options - but the setting that I did change before being disabled persisted as the value that I set. Super weird, could be firmware, or a faulty device because I don't see any other threads discussing the same thing.MR6150 5G SA Band Lock
I need to be able to band lock the MR6150 to a 5G standalone network. Is this not possible as I don't see any settings to do so? It appears the device keeps trying to access a nearby AT&T network, but i need a lock to my private enterprise 5G SA network. My 5G SA Network: Band = N48 PLMN = 315010 Current FW:Will 5G SA support on MR6150 be reassessed in the future?
I have two MR6150 hotspots connected to the T-Mobile network, and sometimes they will try to carrier aggregate with LTE bands that appear to be congested in my area. I have seen the two hotspots sitting right next to each other where one decides to connect to LTE B2 and achieves speeds of around 400Mbps, and the other connects to LTE B66 and can barely break 100Mbps. This is from the same location with the same T-Mobile SIM and same plan. I would love to know what is causing the different behaviors when the two identical hotspots are right next to each other. Sometimes I can get the one that gravitates toward B66 to connect to B2 after a reboot, or driving around with it, but it doesn't reliably stay there. When it is on B2, it performs great, when it is on B66 the performance is horrible. I did some research and I found out that the 5G Standalone mode used to be offered but was removed, as discussed in this thread: MR6150 - Cannot connect to 5G only bands | NETGEAR Communities The reasoning for its removal from the firmware seems ridiculous. It reads to me like "oh because we felt like it and you shouldn't use it anyway, Netgear knows better than you and based on a few lab tests we see no real world use case for this setting". Since that response was now around 2 years ago, and in that time I think attitudes toward 5G Standalone are changing, will 5G Standalone ever be added back in to the firmware? As a test I downgraded my device to a version 10 firmware, and it is able to connect to 5G Standalone, and the performance is far improved from when it was randomly connecting to B66. I went from unreliable and unpredictable speeds to predictable and good speeds. For now, I think I will continue to run the old firmware so I can have the 5G Standalone feature that was taken away for no reason. Alternatively, I would love a way to blacklist bands that I don't want the device to connect to. If there were checkboxes for each band and I could simply disable N71, so the device would stay on B2, the performance would be better for me. As time passes and carrier attitudes shift toward preferring 5G Standalone, is there ever going to come a time when this feature will be reconsidered and put back into the new firmware? Thanks, KirkNighthawk M3 – Cannot change SSID for 2.4 GHz / 5 GHz without factory reset
Hi, I have an issue with my Netgear Nighthawk M3. I can only change the SSID for the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands immediately after a factory reset. After normal setup, the “Apply” button stays red in the WiFi settings and changes are not saved. Because of this, I cannot set the same SSID for both bands, which is important for my use case. This is reproducible: After factory reset: SSID can be changed After normal operation: changes cannot be applied Is this a known firmware issue, and is there any workaround or fix? Thanks!Carrier aggregation info on MR6150?
Does M6 5g support carrier aggregation? I guess it is. If so, how many carrier aggregation bands can I use? For example, the Nokia 5G Receiver 5G16-A supports 4 Carrier Aggregation (4CA), allowing it to achieve up to 300 MHz of aggregated bandwidth. Any help will be much appreciated! Oh, I also want to know if there are any recommended 5G antennas for M6. Thanks.SolvedSIM unlock domains not working
Hello, My unlocked M1 connects to my devices, I’m all logged in, and the signal works, but I am prompted to unlock my SIM to connect to Internet. However, the suggested http://attwifimanager and routerlogin domains and IP domain do not load I have cleared cache and done everything suggested. There is no support for M1 on mobile app Any advise would be much appreciated Traveling in ItalyM5 Nighthawk MR5200 Problem Acces Intern
Hello, I am reaching out for assistance with my Netgear Nighthawk M5 router. I have a 5G Surf Unlimited subscription with Salt (Switzerland), and the SIM card works perfectly when used in my mobile phone (iphone), including when I use my phone as a hotspot. However, when I insert the same SIM card into the Nighthawk M5 (MR5200), the device shows a strong 5G signal with full bars, but i can't acces web pages / internet. Pages are not loading (one time i succeed by manually changing DNS to 1.1.1.1 and others stuff, but it was super slow, now i reset and nothing work...). I would like to know if there are specific settings I need to adjust, such as DNS configurations or other network settings ?. I had the confirmation from Salt that they don't block / restrict acces to internt, so the problem comes from the M5 setting. I think the problem is coming from the APN settings. I wrote "internet" as suggested. Again it's connected but it seems to have no communication with the "internet". I spent days on it... you are my last hope. Thanks in advance PepitoCan the screen on M6 be rotated?
Is the LED screen on the M6 rotatable? The reason I'm asking is that I saw there is an Ethernet port at the bottom of M6. I plan to plug my laptop via the cable. If I want to put this device vertically, the Touchscreen would be upside down. I prefer to plug the cable from the top:-D. Heard somewhere that the vertical position is good for heat dissipation.MR6150 - Nighthawk M6 | Error - type #2, Reason #209
Hello, I recently purchased a new M6 Pro (SIM-free) and normally use it on the EE network within the UK without any issues. Today is the first time I’ve tried to use the device abroad. Roaming is enabled both on my EE account and within the device settings. However, when attempting to connect to a local roaming network, the device displays a warning triangle and shows the following error: Type #2, Reason #209. Does anyone know what this error means, or how I can resolve it? I was wondering if I might need to manually download or update on the device the network settings for roaming? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you.
