NIGHTHAWK M6 & M6 PRO Connectivity Issue Resolved!
Hello NIGHTHAWK Community, A new software update is now available and being pushed over the air to all AT&T M6 Pro and M6 devices to address the recent Ethernet issue. If your device does not show PRI version 4.10 under Device Information, please check for updates manually from your device. We thank you for your continued patronage! Best, NETGEAR TeamHow do I lock my Netgear Nighthawk hotspot to only use 5G?
It keeps flipping back to 4G even though there is a strong, fast 5G signal available. I have to reboot the hotspot for it to go back to the much faster 5G signal. Give it a few minutes or a few hours and it'll get stuck on 4G. The hotspot is stationary. I am not moving it at all when this happens.Using MR6500 with Unifi Express Router
I just purchased an MR6500 and I need some pointers of how to set it up to work with my current network. My router is a Unifi Express device and presently it connects to a DSL modem. I want to replace the DSL with the MR6500. I am planning to connect the MR6500 using ethernet and to connect the Ethernet connector to the router "internet" port. I realize there will be changes to the router, how do I set up the MR6500 to operate in this mode?MR5200 (M5) Download Firmware

Hi, I run a MacBookPro M2 through a MR7500 Nighthawk M7 (on the Telstra network). I use OpenVPN client software to connect to a remote business network, and it has been running fine for years. However after recently upgrading to MacOS Tahoe 26 on my laptop, iPad and iPhone, my M7 is blocking my Open VPN connections. If I run my iPad, iPhone or Macbook Pro directly through a seperate 5G hotspot everything runs as expected. If I run my iPad, iPhone and MackBook Pro through my MR7500 Nighthawk M7 via a Wi-Fi or wired connection, OpenVPN will connect but I cannot access the business network. I have found I need to run OpenVPN through ProtonVPN (tunnel in a tunnel) to access the business network, which effectively hides OpenVPN from the M7. I reset the M7 back to factory default, but still have the issue. I have uninstalled and reinstalled VPN software multiple times. I have the same problem with the Tunnelblick VPN client, so it is not just OpenVPN. Looks like Apple may have removed some legacy IPsec protocols in Tahoe OS which is tripping up the M7. Does anyone have any suggestions?Nighthawk M7 Ultra (Telstra)
I am looking at buying this product to use at home. I have tried a Nighthawk 4G M2 model and it does not give me the WiFi range required for a camera setup for the backyard. Currently using NBN. Does the M7 Ultra give a greater straight line metre/feet Wi Fi coverage? The only info I can find is: Coverage 90 square metres or 2000 square feet which does not help me. I need a flat line distance feet/metres that the wifi will be picked up. Thanks
