@moddermod
You are calling me out in public for not opening up my hard drive to you for anything you want from it?
Not cool at all.
let me explain something to you, I do this for a living, while your at work or sleeping or out with your friends or whatever it is you do, I am working every day ...

you should do AT!OPENMEP instead of AT!OPENLOCK

Verified MR6550-100PAS FW running on top of MR6500-1A1NAS is working fine, OPENLOCK/OPENMEP are all working with latest keygen.
No FW file from me, am just getting confirmation from mrCONFIG/mrUNLOCK user.

try to edit /mnt/userrw/ntgnv/apns-conf.xml for coressponding carrier, apns.xml will be generated/derived from this apns-conf.xml whenever new sim card inserted. delete existing apns.xml before starting this (tried with MR6110-1TLAUS/MR6450-100EUS but should be the same for MR6500)

Quickest way is ...

Hi Rich,

One question, what would happened when flashed MR6500, now is becoming MR6550, upgrade its FW later? Is it still remained as "MR6550" or the upgrade path will be broken going forward?

Regards,
William

seems you happened to stay with the page where wrong information was done, which very common for Netgear, here is another link that shows most of M6/M6Pro band support difference, FYI

https://kb.netgear.com/000065402/What-a ... le-hotspot

from Netgear datasheet, it does have same bands support as you are retrieving via AT command, please check https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files ... DS_ATT.pdf

Yes you can but it is kind of defeating the purpose of this since it is for people that buy these almost thousand-dollar devices then right after they get them they update and lock the owners out making them not unlockable or moddable/adjustable to use on the carrier of their choice or use the ...

update::
since this is really a 6500 thread, it is the device that has given me the most trouble, it is now 100% working with
port 5510 and MEP access again, before I was downgrading or trying to for this one I had to tick the version up to get it to work because of the device being fuzed now on ...

Hi B.Kerler,

With Netgear to introduce new unlock code scheme on MR6xxx series, from this April. New keygen released by B.Kerler is now available in mrCONFIG v4.80, and onward. Impacted models are
MR6110-1TLAUS
MR6400-1DNNAS
MR6450-100EUS
MR6500-1A1NAS
MR6500-1TLAUS
MR6550-100PAS

It might also introduced on the ...

With new unlock code generator done by B.Kerler, mrCONFIG v4.80 is now able to unlock Telnet (IMEI repair still not available though).
try it with your updated device, MR6550 is with new gen of unlock code from beginning) as below syntax

mrCONFIG -ac xxxx -entel -ngkeygen

Access code, xxxx here ...

So it seems all the FW for M6/M6Pro released by April, and onward, would have new keygen formula. My MR6450 just got upgraded and OPENLOCK nolonger works, fortunately I have preserve my Telnet after upgraded.

Understood, just hope that B.Kerler's action won't impact many users out there as they are not trying to get any profits from this keygenerator but self satisfied to unlock features under the hood for this device.

@zhongfu

Is it possible that you can provide the formula to do at!openlock? At least it can unlock Telnet for many users who needs to do further tweaks?

I am the author of mrCONFIG, would love to integrate that to tinyurl.com/mrCONFIGTools for all the users who are looking for resolution on MR6550

Would reset to factory default bring the device back to work?

Is there a known way on the MR5100 to prevent the firmware from updating?. There seems to be allot more info about the M1s vs the M5s on this stuff.

I read a few places that the M1s don't do a full firmware load when they update - not sure if the M5s are the same or not. I am running 2 of these ...

CA is controlled by the FW, so no way to change it so far. And, Netgear is not releasing FW after M1, not likely you can upgrade the FW manually.

MR5100-1TLAUS does possible to unlock bands as MR5200-100EUS, so far seems all M6 is hard coded bands' support.

The Web GUI on page Diagnostic does not show you CA status, you need to issue "at !gstatus" and "at !gstatus5g" to get CA status while pushing traffics over the device

you can try with a tool, mrCONFIG, it will do the job if that is supported.

For those who only needs sierrakeygen.py to generate unlock code for your Netgear devices, here is light version of sierrakeygen.py, renamed as sierrakeygen-mobile.py, which you just need Python installed on your platform and run this Python script directly. No more installation/setup is required ...

This is the information retried from physical device, FYI

Have tried with MR6500-1A1NAS in my country where only n78 is supported and it does not work here.
Also MR5200-100EUS supporting both n77 and n78 does work, you might want to get this device if WiFi6E is not a MUST feature.

The datasheet you post is for MR5100C (should be MR5100C-1BNCNS) which has following bands supported -
LTE - B1/B2/B3/B4/B5/B7/B12/B13/B17/B25/B29/B30/B38/B41/B66/B71
NR5G - n2/n5/n25/n38/n41/n48/n66/n71/n77/n78

But MR6500-1A1NAS only has following bands supported -
LTE - B1/B2/B3/B4/B5/B7/B12 ...

you would need to specify the image file with -f option, FDT -f image_file, and seems you did not put image file onto the folder where you launched FDT

@DanDeltona You might need to reboot your PC/Laptop after Python/pip3 installed as the PATH change needs that to be effective. In case you have Python installed but not pip3, you can still install that via "python -m pip3 install" command, hope this helps.

3. Install Python from https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.10.5/python-3.10.5-amd64.exe ...

Netgear changed FW behavior which is preventing custom band selection, going through terminal is the only way at the moment

there is a tool, mrCONFIG at tinyurl.com/mrCONFIGTools, that can do the same as Telnet tool but more simple and convenient, you can give a try

you can try with "at !band=xx" where xx stands for index number for the band option that you want to pick up as default
