It says "Sim Card Not Detected" when I log in, so it doesen't work.
It has worked for 3 years.
Things I tested:

Reboot
Testen different simcard
Tested different simcard with other provider
Reset
Uploaded firmwere again
Uploaded modemfirmwere again
Still says "Sim Card Not Detected"
Is it "over and out"?

    Hi @Janlar

    Based on the test you did, it seems like a hardware issue. Please contact the seller or the provider for help with the RMA.

    Ok thanks….Can I make the 5101 to work in Bridge mode….can't find that in settings ?
    I'v bought the FWA505 and would want that to work with the 5101 that WiFi still works on and its too old for RMA i think (3 1/2 year)…

    Hi @Janlar

    You can make it works like in bridge mode for its LAN and WiFi/SSID.

    Here is what you need to do/check:

    1. Please ensure your firmware is V1.16(ACCG.1)C0 or V1.00(ABVC.8)C0
    2. Disable the NAT & IGMP Proxy & Apply as Default Gateway settings for the Ethernet WAN interface.
      Path: Menu > Broadband > ETHWAN > modify/edit button > Routing Feature image.png

    With this configuration and connect the ETHWAN to my uplink device, I can get the IP address from the uplink device.

    Additionally, please remember to configure different management IP address for FWA505 and NR5101. Using same IP address will cause issues since IP conflict.

    Hope this helps.
