EG06 - firmware EG06ALAR02A07M4G vs EG06ALAR02A07M4G_04 vs EG06ALAR04A01M4G

I have a small fleet of IoT devices with EG06 modems inside. I notice different firmwares on these devices and cannot find any release notes about them, or even to know which one is more recent.

EG06ALAR02A07M4G
EG06ALAR02A07M4G_04
EG06ALAR04A01M4G

Can you please tell me, of these 3 firmwares, which is the latest version, and point to any available release notes for them?

Thank you!

And follow up, where can I download EG06ALAR04A01M4G please?

Hello @herbert.pan-Q

I came across this thread while troubleshooting my Netgear LAX20. I have been using a Google Fi SIM card as a backup internet connection, which worked fine in the past. However, during a recent ISP outage, my LAX20 failed to connect to the internet via the SIM card.

I haven’t changed any settings on the router since the last time the backup connection worked.

Since my workplace provides these routers, I borrowed another LAX20 to compare. When I tested my SIM card in the newer router, the LTE connection worked without any issues.

One key difference I noticed is that the LTE modem firmware is different between the two routers:

  • Non-working router firmware: EG06ALAR02A07M4G
  • Working router firmware: EG06ALAR02A07M4G_01.002.01.002-V03

Questions:

  1. Where can I download EG06ALAR02A07M4G_01.002.01.002-V03 (or the latest compatible firmware) for my LAX20?
  2. Is there a known issue with the older EG06ALAR02A07M4G firmware that could cause LTE connectivity failures?
  3. Are there any recommended steps to manually update the LTE modem firmware on the LAX20?
