Jio sim is not working on my Archer MR600 v2 as well. I had also inserted the Jio sim onto a 5G handset. Before I can proceed and install the updated firmware can you or any of the existing users confirm whether if switching back and forth between Jio and Airtel possible with this fix? Is the connectivty stable?
