Warning if you are switching to TMobile
Have been using this for 2 years with ATT sim card, my isp discontinued att unlimited data plans, so I had to switch to TMobile sim and it will not connect at all. I changed the APN settings to the correct ones they did a system refresh on the sim and changed to static IP but still will not connect. I would not buy this product for use with TMobile pink plans. My ISP said this is an ongoing issue, some work and some don't. Mine is unlocked and should work. Tried sim card in my neighbors different router and it worked fine, so the issue is with this nighthawk router. Prior to that it worked fine, however the one we had before that stopped working and would constantly reset, so I was not able to even attempt a factory reset because the dam thing wouldn't stay on long enough.

Best Hotspot Yet!
Needed a Hotspot for our rv for work on the road and the NETGEAR Nighthawk M1 Mobile Router (MR1100 has far surpassed my expectations so far. Anxious to try it in remote areas when boondocking to see the reception and will update my review at that point. Well worth the cost of it over cheaper ones. The reviews sold me, and I totally agree with the raves! Set up was tricky, but it was an ATT new line issue. Otherwise, I have no complaints!

Netgear Nighthawk M1
I just acquired this router a month ago, and it has been on everyday since. I use it in my RV and depend on it to give me the wifi connection I must have. I use a pair of TS9 antennas to give me the maximum signal because we are not parked in a neighborhood. I'm currently using it plugged in with the battery in, but have read it is possible to plug it in without the battery. I have to do more research. Thanks

I have been using a hotspot that I purchased from Verizon, as they are my wireless carrier, and often had trouble getting signal in areas that I get great signal on my phone. After getting fed up I purchased the NETGEAR Nighthawk MR1100 on whim at a local AT&T store and this thing is awesome!! Great signal all the time, and everything connects without any issues.

Great Idea, but slow download speeds on AT&T SIM
I recently purchased the Nighthawk mr1100-100nas and, while I liked the concept, I was only receiving download speeds of up to 1 mbps and upload speed of about .25 mbps at the highest. I currently have a prepaid AT&T SIM card installed, and I’ve tried switching band channels from dual to 5.8Ghz, moving the position of my router, making sure the firmware was up to date, changing the WiFi range from long to short, and rebooting the Nighthawk entirely.
After many other adjustments and attempts I was still only able to achieve downloads speeds of up to 1mbps. I took my Nighthawk back to AT&T, but they only swapped out the SIM card and informed me that there wasn’t much that they could do from their end.
Solution
After further research it appears that the IMEI for the Nighthawk mr1100-100NAS (the one I bought
from Amazon is not issued through AT&T and is not authorized for LTE service, like the Nighthawk mr1100-1A1NAS and mr1100-1A2NAS that AT&T sells. I hope this helps potential buyers make the correct purchase when looking at the different models of the m1.

I recently received my nighthawk M1 and immediately put it into action. I have a mesh system in my house and outbuildings which contains 12 pods to help boost my internet throughout my property. The Nighthawk seems to be working as advertised with the mesh system and supports all my computers and phones as well. Netflix and Amazon prime have no problem streaming. In total I have 18 items on the network at any given time and the Nighthawk handles the load effortless.

A reliable WiFi connection is important to someone who travels in their RV. Reliability is not always the case with campground WiFi connections. The Nighthawk M1 connects all of my devices with ease. Printer, laptop and two mobile phones all connect with ease. I utilize the option to remove the battery and power the device with the power cord. I’m very pleased and definitely recommend the Netgear Nighthawk M1 Mobile Router as an inexpensive solution to staying connected with WiFi.

Complete bust for anything but computers & phones
As an IT professional, I had high hopes for this router - perfect package size, low power consumption, and decent speed. I wanted to set it up to monitor a remote Wi-Fi connected camera and wi-fi enabled power monitor (for a work truck. It was abysmal - I could not get most cameras I tried to even connect, the only one that did was Nest and the latency was so bad it was unusable. Like literally 10 or more seconds. Further - the router does not have DDNS - I can buy a $30 router and it has DDNS, why is it not standard on this device.
I think Netgear needs to make it clear that this router is for computers, phones, tablets only and that it CANNOT support most cameras and other wi-fi appliances . It also should be clear that it does not support DDNS and that the Arlo camera interface that it so call includes DOES NOT WORK. I literally tried for hours and could not get anything but computers, phones and tablets to connect. Super frustrating. I returned it to Amazon.

Good Choice
For others like us who live in remote areas with limited internet options, this is a solid choice. It is much faster and allows many more connected devices than our previous ATT hotspot. Since, in our case, it is plugged in full time, the option to remove the battery so that it does not overcharge or heat up is a great option. Set up was easy and when I had a question, the customer service chat line was quick and helpful. Thanks NetGear.

Constant issues with randomly powering off
I “upgraded” to one of these through AT&T wireless and the experience has been pretty terrible. I have gone through 3 different devices, all with the same issue- the hotspot will randomly power off and on numerous times in a row causing WiFi signal to not work. Issue started within first few months of having device, this after previous mobile hotspot from different company lasted more than 5 years without a problem until it finally died, hence the need for a replacement. Would definitely not recommend one of these, especially if you are trying to use it with AT&T service.

Buy elsewhere
I ordered this hotspot from Netgear last week. When I received the "your purchase has been shipped" email, Netgear included the following copy in the email:
"Customers are responsible for tracking the package and being available to receive the shipment. The shipment is under customer ownership after it leaves the NETGEAR warehouse. Refunds or replacements will NOT be issued for lost or missing packages."
Netgear does not allow purchasers to specify a shipper, so if Negear's shipper choice does not provide secure shipping, leaves packages in insecure locations or anything else that results in the package not being delivered, the customer is responsible for the loss, not Netgear.
This policy is completely not up to the standards of the entire online retail sector. Amazon, for example, replaces items that Amazon has shipped and that are lost or stolen in shipping. It's regrettable that Netgear has an irresponsible policy on this issue and in particular, regrettable that its policy is not specified before customers make a purchase.
Just want to let everyone know since Netgear doesn't. If you definitely want this or any other Netgear item, you may want to consider purchasing it on Amazon unless you want to eat the loss if the item doesn't actually get delivered to you.

I have recently concluded my test of the Netgear Nighthawk M1 for our use at home and while away in our motorhome. It has passed with flying colors. It completely gives us the performance capabilities we require and the agility we desire with our frequent and lengthy motorhome trips. Equally important, it allowed us to “cut the cord” with essentially no compromise.

Latest Update a Huge Problem for Many
My Netgear is long out of warranty and service. The latest update of the MR 1100 has caused a huge problem for the past few months, it is now March 2021, and many people across the board according to all of the communities I have been reading for weeks now can no longer see their data usage and days remaining. I sent to requests to Netgear about this issue and no response. Now I see if I purchase a new device I also need to pay $80 for customer support. I think Netgear needs to take care of the devices already sold.

Needs improvement.
Great connection and excellent battery life. Issues with the port forwarding, message feature and total data usage. The messages are not easy to read and delete. I ignore them now. Some issues with port forwarding when using the wired uplink/offload feature. Biggest issue is that the device loses track of data used each power cycle. Support has no idea what is going on and there is not way to reliably monitor usage, but I am not offered a new device. Was offered to send it in for repair. When traveling for work I cannot be without the connection for however long it takes them to figure out the problem.

Durable Product/ Decent Connection for 3-4 Devices
Works just fine. But if you’re traveling and using hotspot for say the iPad. I does just fine on it’s own. But if a second device connects and starts streaming YouTube. The person watching Netflix’s will get slowed down to where pixels are not clear or if you’re watching a movie on Apple TV+ forget about it. It won’t even load. For some reason YouTube uses a lot! Or videos on Instagram or snap use a lot. Not as bad as YouTube. But other than that you can comfortably have 3-4 tv’s watch Netflix’s. Netflix works the best on this device. Just some advice if you are interested in buying the M1 for travel or home.

High-speed or even slow-speed wifi is not available at our address through either of the local service providers or satellite as we live in a heavily wooded semi-rural area of Alaska. The Nighthawk M1 works off a cell signal, which fortunately we do have access to at home, to provide internet for multiple devices in our home (at least until we run out of hotspot data for the month, then it slows way down, and streaming anything becomes impossible). The device is dependent on having a hotspot plan and a sim card from a provider, which we already did when we bought it. It was easy enough to set up, though more detailed instructions would have made it even faster and completely stress-free. The Netgear website and device packaging says it is optimized for AT

It quit
Had the router connected and running in the truck for a few days then it just quit. Called Att, they sent me to Netgear, who sent me back to Att. Still not up.

Good hotspot, app needs fixing
Been using hotspot on T-Mobile, and before that on ATT. Good hotspot on both carriers. The only problem is the way to get to menu. The Android app has big problems, so I can no longer log in to get things like messages, and the menu.

The new replacement device will be need to be restarted manually several times throughout the day as it will randomly drop connectivity.

For the price ...
I guess I was expecting perfection. We are full time RVers and have struggled with internet while on the road for two years. Our last MiFi, from Verizon, was nothing more than a glorified paperweight. This is better, but not almost $300 better. I’m not techie, but it just seems to me that if I am in an RV park in a major city, I should be getting more than 2 bars no matter which window I put it in. Even when connected to the MIMO antenna, I’ll get 2 bars. But, like I said, I’m not a techie so maybe I just don’t understand how it works. Other issues: turning it on or off, I hold the button down for 3,5,10 seconds and nothing happens. Release. Try again. Usually on the 2nd or third time, when I’m drilling my finger down on the button like Goliath, the device turns on or off. I’ll plug it in to charge at night and sometimes I wake up in the morning to discover that it never really turned off and had been running all night. Come one now. For almost $300, please make an on-off switch that works. Another annoyance is that the MIMO antenna wires don’t securely plug into this device. You can’t really tell if they are secure or if they are going to fall out ... because sometimes I discover that one of the wires has fallen out. Anyway, it’s better than what I had for $10 per month from Verizon, but I was expecting more for the price.

Nighthawk M1 Mobile Router Review
The MR1100 Mobile Router is best in wireless computing. The reliability and speed are second to none with its gigabit performance. The device had a long lasting battery and is durable for all conditions. This device is also the only mobile router that offers an Ethernet port as an additional connection as well as up to 20 device connection capability. Not to mention the ability to attach additional antennas if needed for lower signal areas. This mobile router is truly the best product on the market for personal and or business use being AT&T FirstNet ready for all of the first responders.

I have two MR1100's. As a fast, stable 4G modem cant beat them. But when plugged into pc or power permanently, the batteries only last about 6 months. The modem will not work on power only, if battery is taken out. Would be a ideal device if could slip the battery out and run permanently on power, then put the battery in for travel.

The Nighthawk MR1100 is a great unit. Unfortunately, when used through ATT, the settings are very limited. Needed to disable SIP for use with a VIOP phone. The normal settings menu will allow this if it's not a ATT unit. Netgear customer service was awesome when trying to help me with the issue, but once again, ATT had the setting blocked.

Perfect for remote deployment
I ordered this after I found out I’d be deployed to a rural area with limited internet provider options. I couldn’t rely on my mobile hotspot because I have multiple smart devices that need to work when I’m out of the house. It was surprisingly straight forward to order brand new and unlocked unit on Amazon and activate it on a prepaid data plan. The large and descriptive screen is easy to understand. Controls are simple with only a single button. Great battery life! I like it a lot.

Great hotspot but broke after a year and 1 month
I loved this WiFi hotspot. When my wife was in and out of the hospital due to cancer, I had to find a reliable and secure way of connecting to the internet for work, gaming and Netflix for my wife in the hospital. Found this hotspot and and it was amazing. I was able to directly connect my gaming system with an Ethernet cable for lag free gaming at the same time streaming movies for my wife. Did this for about a year being in the hospital. But then one day, I tried turning it on, got stuck on the netgear logo and was not able to make it work again. I was bummed spending 300 plus dollars on a hotspot that broke after over a year.

Nighthawk Will Not Turn On - Known Issue
The Nighthawk 4G LTE Mobile Router (MR1100) Will Not Turn On. I searched the web and it is a common issue, a known issue. Netgear is addressing the issue. I used the devise maybe 2 days out of a month when I traveled. I have owned it a little over a year so the warranty has expired. I would advise others not to buy this device. Based on my experience and everything I have read, The Nighthawk has a shelf life of 1 year.

Device does not allow access to the Cloud Ports 3387 and 7890 are blocked in contract with AT&T. If you are expecting to use this to access Quickbooks on the Cloud, or other Cloud based uses it will not work.. Also, the most I ever got was 31Megs down/.87Megs up. This device may work satisfactorily if you are simply using it for streaming Netflix or YouTube. Jitter was high at over 50 and latency was around 87, which is also high. Works good for streaming but don't expect to send an email.

Awesome mobile LTE router
This unit acts as a mobile personal WIFI hotspot utilizing cell signals, which provides us with internet service with Full Dual-Band / Dual-Concurrent Wi-Fi for up to 20 devices. The best part of this device is that it can offload data via an existing Ethernet network port or existing Wi-Fi connection, which converts this mobile router to act as an additional access point to an existing Ethernet port or an existing Wi-Fi network.
The battery can last for more than a day with regular use, but this device can also be powered on via USB C with the need for the unit’s battery needed to be inserted. This feature helps to retain the battery life.
Overall, this is an excellent solution to all personal mobile networking needs.

Bricked after an update
I loved this Hotspot. However, after an update that was automatically pushed by netgear or the service provider my hotspot became inoperable. It cycles through a bootloop and then turns off. I've tried trouble shooting myself and with netgear support and nothing can be done. I was asked to buy a new one. Not happy that their update was forced and is the cause of the device no longer working.

In review prior to purchase, sounded like the perfect fit...now that I've spent the money am unable to use it with my Verizon service. Any help to make that happen would change my review to 5 stars.

Unusable
Currently have Verizon - much to my dismay, they tell me it's only 3G. Then informed per Verizon Rep: re: Nighthawk M1 Router. Unfortunately that model is not slotted for use on Verizon. IT said they cannot add it to our device database (they said Netgear did not provision that model for Verizon. PLEASE HELP!! I believe if able to use would deserve a much better review and I'd like that opportunity!!

Perfect mobile internet solution
I recently purchased Netgear Mr1100 hotspot that can accommodate using almost any SIM card. Getting decent speeds and signal even without using the antenna ports, but will be upgrading to a MIMO flat antenna to increase to even more signal. Admin app on my iPhone is straightforward and easy to use as well. Glad I purchased this device to use while camping in our RV!

Very Unhappy Experience
I had great expectations for using the Mobile Router and found it very frustrating experience. It has a serious design flaw. I needed to open the Router to insert the SIM card and found it impossible to open. The design is terrible as you need to press your thumbs on the back on indicated arrows and 'slide' the cover off. However, the back only pushed against the metal edge of the device and could not be opened, rendering the device useless. NETGEAR was very good, to their credit, in providing for a device return and a full refund. I really wanted the router.

Admin Login does not work, would not recommend
I do not recommend this device if you want to configure anything at all. None of the admin login instructions work even with a reset. The default password, netgear app, web login all are nonfunctional. If you just want to plug it in and have internet, that alone works. If you bought it for business use with ATT, forget about the administrator login function, it doesn't work.

Nice idea
I’ve been without internet access for four days now. It turns out in the latest firmware update Netgear decided to delete a setup option to make the Ethernet connection always on. Kind of key to using the M1 as a modem don’t you think Netgear? Plug in a Cat5 cable and the M1 goes dark. I’m having problems with the battery too. Installed the battery and the M1 goes dark. Ok, I’m thinking the battery is dead. No problem, buy and overnight a new battery.... same issue. Not to mention the loss of income and time from no internet access for four days. It’s pretty sad when you have to rely on YouTube videos for tech support. So Netgear, firmware changes to delete a fairly important feature with no fix, battery charge issues make it go stupid, and no support. I have about $250 invested in useless, hardware with no support. I’m guessing I’m not going to win the gift card drawing. Thanks Netgear! NEVER again!

Not what we were told/sold
I’m sure the product itself works fine for what it is. It is not, however the product we were told we were getting - better hotspot than what our cell service offers. Unfortunately now we’re told it’s only as good (or as terrible as our cell service we have already which is virtually non-existent. In moving our office to the house now due to lack of work, we are needing better internet as DSL, U-Verse, cable, none of these are available to our country home. We are desperate to find anything available here that’s better than this God-forsaken satellite internet we have now.

Doesn't receive or send strong signal
After about 6 weeks this thing has no usable signal, when it did work, I had to constantly reboot it to keep the signal strong. The reason I'm writing this review is because customer support is nonexistent, when you call, they hang up on you and when you wait for a call back, they don't call back. I just want a replacement so I can do what I need to do.

Real speed
For the money, this hotspot rocks for traveling. Great range and 4 MIMO antennas + input for external - though that cuts MIMO in half - real 5G is still sparsely available, so until it is, there’s no reason to pay twice as much for a hotspot that can’t use the bandwidth yet.

Works well, needs better internal antenna
Fairly easy to set up. Devices connect easily and work okay. The speed of the connection seems to depend on the cellular signal strength. Since I’m using this a lot in the boonies I’m lucky to get 1M down. I haven’t been able to find a portable antenna to use to strengthen the signal.
Devices stay connected over periods of inactivity, which is convenient.

I have been using this without any optional antenna and it has been good, although it shows the signal strength as Fair or Poor most times even while getting decent speed. I keep it plugged in most times so I have removed the battery in hopes of prolonging its usable life and I have been told that will work IF not many devices are connected to it since the power cord alone is under-powered from what I hear and can cause the the Nighthawk to restart, etc. I have not had any problems only having 2 devices connected and using short range setting on the wifi.

Great internet option for rural homes
I purchased this router to use T mobile for my Lake Palestine lake home. It is good to have 40 MBPs speed where you can only get 1-2 MBPs from DSL carriers. I hooked this up to my Google wifii mesh system.

Hassle to use
Unlike other broadband mobile router, you can top-up your data plan by sending SMS while this one has no feature like that. This company is not competitive, they will just sell products and will no longer improve it and just sell another version of the product for you to buy again. Totally waste of money. I'm definitely not happy!

All day streaming
Bought the NightHawk over 20 months ago from AT&T and added it to our Family Unlimited data plan. We use the unit at our lake house to provide wifi service. Added a quick charge AC adapter and removed the battery. We have poor cellular service here at the lake house, however we are able to stream live tv and Netflix to our roku tv via the Nighthawk. I recommend the Nighthawk.

Awesome is not enough to describe it.
Had wanted this particular model of hotspot. When I was able to get one, I got 2. Have not been disappointed. I live in a somewhat rural area near an airport.
With the one I had before, I used to lose connection everytime planes passed over or even big trucks passed by with their cb radios. This one keeps the connection, no problems.The speed is great and so is the ease of use. I definitely recommend it. When I can, I will move up to the next model when I can afford to. But for now, this one is more than capable of handling my uploading and downloading needs.

Forced into 5G? This is a good option.
I bought this because AT&T "upgraded" me to 5G and now my service sucks, and they can't roll me back to an outdated plan. I use this hotspot now, forced into 4G Lte, and use my phone through this to get a better signal than I had before. Everything is now back to where it was before, but for a lot more money.

This is the 2nd one of these MR1100 Routers I've owned. The product is state of the art, has the ability of adding 2 antennas, truly works on all carriers currently running mint mobile, Netgear's customer service is 5 stars for sure. They are persistent in finding answers and calling back. In following up to be assured the question or concern has been addressed. I can't say enough good things about this company! They really have it together across the board.
Thank you Netgear and your team! Job well done. I can't wait to be able to upgrade to the M5 5500 PRO! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!

Hit and miss!
Well, it would connect with signal of two bars and before 2 minutes it would drop out. It would do this off and on for the next 20 minutes or so. Obviously, it was useless when it would drop out before I was able to complete a task. I read in other reviews that it was rebooting at this time. I don’t understand why it would unless there was a flaw. Would probably be a useful device if it worked consistently. Must be poor quality control to let so many get in the market. No! I could not recommend this product.

Great but - just one more thing
I am an Internet jargon novice. I bought two M1 mobile routers. M1 would get FIVE stars if it showed more than just the number of devices connected. It needs to show the name of the device connected and the IP address of the device connected.
I now know how critically important it is to see the name and IP address of each connected device. This may cause me to look for a different router. I really like the performance of the M1 over my former cell provider’s mobile routers.
This short fall of no knowing the name and IP of devices on the M1 screen may cause me to look for another device next time. I am a mobile router user, a novice to mobile routers and IP jargon, but I have quickly learned that knowing this much is critical.

Update crashed the router on day 1.
Get the router that is pre-made for your service provider (will probably have service provider’s logo on it. I tried to set up this one with AT&T and it worked for about an hour before automatically running an update that froze the router. Despite best efforts and the assistance of Netgear support, it could not be fixed and I had to return it. I bought one that is pre-made for AT&T (has AT&T logo on it) and it has been working well.

NETGEAR Nighthawk M1 Mobile Router (MR1100)
one of the best decisions I made was to get this router. I live in the country and could not get a good internet service provider. I decided to go the prepaid route but needed a router and after doing an internet search I came across this router on other websites, but it was costly. I decided to check directly with Netgear and found it much cheaper. It was a rough start in the beginning with getting everything setup but after contacting tech support which there is access to for some time after the initial purchase I was able to get this router up and running. It is fast and don’t cut off or lag like most of the other services I have had in the past. I have an AT

So far it's decent.
I'm making use of this router daily. The size is excellent (small enough to fit in your pocket and the router itself is very simple, with a single button on top, and readable screen that shows your gb usage and connectivity, battery life, etc.. It's very easy to use. The only issues I have with it are that it seems to overheat easily (even in an air conditioned room), and that the battery does not last all day. If it gets hot, it will not charge. So the overheating battery makes the battery drain lower, and you can't charge it if you need to (using for work) unless you manually cool it down (I'm using lunch box ice packs). There were some connectivity issues which I think were mainly lag and distance related. Overall I'm content with this device and really hope it lasts, and hope I can use it unplugged on a trip one day in a hotter area.

I bought this last year so I could work remotely from my RV in the fall. It worked perfectly. The reason I selected this model is because it has an Ethernet port which I require for my phone.

Nighthawk w MIMO antenna on 1 bar. Thk u Jesus
Without high speed internet for 6 & 1/2 yrs til this came along. Our personal hotspot worked better than Hughesnet, but it was all crawling speed. You have to get the right plan with a sim card from you cell company...a personal hotspot plan on a sim will be targeted & shut down. There's unlimited-limited and there's unlimited-unlimited. Got to pay ATT or Verizon more for the right sim card (we do a business plan for like $65 monthly), and it works wonders with 1 bar of reception.
A cell phone booster will not work for this like it does on cell phones. Our's did not and in fact slowed down our internet speed. To our knowledge you'll need at least 1 bar of service without a booster antenna. Then you'll want a MIMO antenna. MIMO is completely different than cell booster antenna although they look the same. Don't buy the MIMO laptop one from Netgear unless you can't mount a big one outside. Little laptop clip on Mimo antenna from Netgear works fine taking speed from 5Mbps to 10-20Mbps, but a big 2x2 MIMO antenna from Waveform will really increase your speed. With the MIMO external Waveform we went from about 5mbps to 50....sometimes 80. My only knock on the Netgear Nighthawk is that the input receptors for the MIMO antenna are weak. They do not hold the input jacks very well at all. You have to insert the bulky wired MIMO antenna jacks gently and position the little Nighthawk we're it doesn't move or the jacks will slip right out. It's a problem we happily deal with. Position your Nighthawk central to all wifi devices. The further you get away from it the slower the speed. It does work well though for the desperate. Thinking about cancelling our Starlink now.

Great little router
I needed a cellular router for my rural airplane hangar so that I could have security cameras. The Nighthawk M1 was up and running in a matter of minutes. I have had no issues in the first month of using it. The internal battery keeps my security system online even with a power outage!
I am happy with my choice of this router.

Stellar 4G LTE Mobile Router...extremely versatile!
Live out in the middle of nowhere. Strong 5G signal and router 4G LTE MR 1100 is rocking smart TV free movies and shows better than any satellite service i have ever paid for. Just waiting for opportunity to upgrade to 5G Nighthawk MR when I save up enough cash to make that deal. Easy setup. Netgear Android app lets me monitor everything going on flawlessly. Worth every penny.

This is a great little helper. Using it at a VRBO where there is no high speed internet. I m not a big fan of 5g so I like the option of being able to turn it off and only use 2.4g. But no way to do that. That said I also like the LAN port so those that stay with me that are doing work can plug in for even better performance

Easy to set up
My new MR1100 router has been a dream to use. I have previously had set up, configuration, log in and mechanical/hardware issues with many different routers in the past. I had expected this to be a good router as far as function goes, which it by far and away is, however I also expected to have to fight through at least one of the issues mentioned above before being able to get to that great functionality. Boy let me tell you was I pleasantly surprised. The MR 1100 was basically plug and play simple and I didn’t have even so much as a mild hiccup when setting it up. No hair pulling, or crying or device throwing. All that to say, if there is anything that could beat the MR1100’s performance, it’s not another router, it’s the ease of set up and instillation. Both 5 star aspects of this router make it hands down the number one router from out of the box start up to blazing fast surfing the web.

I canceled my dish internet provider for the Nighthawk and it works 10 times better for speed, etc. The only issue I had was the set up information provided in the guide that came with the product, the mobile app or from customer service. None of those methods explained the need for a SIM card, activation and a separate data plan. Information for those very important items to make everything work was not clearly or properly explained.

Broke down after three years
I’m very disappointed with this device. It worked pretty well for about 2 years. During the third year the device started acting strangely. It restarted on its own in the middle of important things I was doing on the internet. Finally the device disabled wifi on its own and it would not let me enable it. While the device looks good cosmetically, it is basically an expensive brick. When I called netgear for help, they basically told me I had to get on a repair contract before they can troubleshoot the device for me. I feel like netgear is not willing to stand behind their product. I will not be purchasing another device from them again.

Had to haggle with ATT to get a better monthly cost on the SIM card. Their website showed the cost for 15 GB but they wanted much more until I told them that I have 3 cell phone lines and both ATT internet and phone at my home and office. They then offered to add only $20 a month to my cell phone bill which was much better than the $50 a month they wanted to charge.

The NETGEAR Nighthawk MR1100 is the perfect home and on-the-go hotspot router. I have used it to replace cable tv = WooHoo! And I take it with me everywhere I go. Grandma doesn’t have internet so this wonderful gadget has saved me from boredom so many times. Very easy to set up. The only issue I had was when I changed providers. I put in the new SIM card. There were instructions on the NETGEAR router screen itself telling me to go to a certain website to set up, but the instructions on neither the website or the app worked. I even tried their other recommended resources like the Community forum. It took me hours to figure it out. (and I didn’t want to pay a $100 for support. I finally went to the Manual and those instructions worked. Whew!

I rate it 2 star because one of the most important feature for me is to fully managed the sms, viewing and deleting of sms is not enough. Sending of SMS is very important if you have sms credits from your sim card or if you would like to top-up your sim for additional data through sending sms.

Nice features in concept, works poorly
Problems using/accessing files via SMB (Finder/Explorer as NAS; conflicting info from tech support and user manual and marketing materials. Connectivity within LAN side frequently; Internet connectivity issues affect local WiFi persistence, requiring daily or more frequent router reboots. Expensive given poor functionality.

Netgear Nighthawk MR1100 home use
I am using my Nighthawk MR1100 for rural home internet. I live on top of a mountain 3.5 miles down a dirt road. I installed a rooftop signal booster to provide a better signal to the MR1100. I have managed to improve my cell signal from -115dbm down to -79dbm. Went from 1 bar to 4 to 5 bars signal.My download speed tops out at about 40mb/s. The Nighthawk MR1100 does well used as my home internet. It took a little ingenuity to boost the signal by way of mounting my signal booster to an old rooftop satellite dish, pointing the dish accurately accurately at the cell tower to better collect the cell signal, and focusing the collected signal on the signal booster. When I need internet on the go I can unplug the MR1100 and have mobile internet for travel.

Great hotspot! We now have great ATT service at the farm where we had very little before. Not only do we have WiFi calling, we also have internet and TV service that didn’t exist before the Nighthawk M1 was installed. Highly recommend for fringe cellular areas, solved all our connectivity issues.

*** FYI T-Mobile customers ***
I purchased an unlocked Netgear MR1100-100NAS late December 2019, that had some weird battery charging issues but nothing to be concerned about. Then Netgear released firmware version 12.06.08.00, I read the release notes and it stated there were minor fixes so I decided to upgrade.
The upgrade completely broke the LTE interface and I was no longer able to attach to T-Mobile’s LTE network. I thought no big deal, I’ll just roll back to the older version (12.05.05.00_00), but that did not work the unit kept generating an “Invalid update file. Error Code 16”. I tried to reflash with the latest code that might clear the issue but I the same error code. In summary I’ve tried the following to get the unit back to normal operation before reaching out to Netgear technical support:
1. Restoring to factory defaults
2. Reverting to firmware 12.05.05.00 via the Ethernet port
3. Reverting to firmware 12.05.05.00 via the Wi-Fi
4. Reverting to firmware 12.05.05.00 via the Wi-Fi Google Chrome browser
5. Reverting to firmware 12.05.05.00 via the Wi-Fi Mozilla Firefox browser
6. Reverting to firmware 12.05.05.00 via the Wi-Fi Microsoft IE browser
7. Removing the T-Mobile SIM then attempting to revert to 12.05.05.00
All failed with “Invalid update file. Error Code 16”, at this point I decided to open a case with Netgear support. After explaining the issue and repeating several of the steps outlined above, they stated that the latest firmware 12.06.08.00 has issues with T-Mobile’s LTE network and they had to ship me a replacement. This was bit of an inconvenience but not a big deal. After a few moments checking with the warehouse the Netgear support representative stated that the unlocked model (MR1100-100NAS) was currently out of stock with no ETA on the horizon. They had no alternative options to address my issue and my only option was to wait and hope that their stock would be replenished soon.
This was an extremely disappointing experience considering the cost of the unit and the inconvenience Netgear’s poor support for an issue their latest firmware clearly created. It also makes me wonder, what if my unit was beyond the warrantee time, would that just mean I’m stuck with a unit their firmware broke?
I would not recommend purchasing this product if you are a T-Mobile customer. Netgear’s firmware testing, quality control and support are poor. How could they miss such an obvious flaw with the latest firmware on T-Mobile’s network, it leads me be believe that the latest release was never tested on the T-Mobile LTE network.

Was a little hesitant at first because of mixed reviews. Our cell phones get good signals from our provider so that helped in choosing this device. I added this as an additional line and I am very pleased in the results. We had cable and it was not reliable along with being costly. This little device consistently gets strong signals and I am very pleased with the performance. Always have around 10 other devices connected and have no issues. Wish I would have found it sooner.

Works Great: Recommend instillation guide
I live in rural Texas with on consolidated for a provider. Their internet speeds were too slow so I purchased this and connected it to T-Mobile. The service worked great for 2 months but after it couldn’t connect to T-Mobile. After researching I found a guide that helped me change the band I was connected with as well as a different APN. Since then I have had no problems and steady connection. I can play games, stream, do schoolwork all at the same time. Our house has 9 people in it and at times we are all on the network with no problems. Great product and great solution to rural areas.

Amazing! But could be better
I bought this so that it could be easy to carry around when I need wifi for work, and I also bought it so my husband can use it for his gaming console, and they specifically say you are able to change the NAT type. I have looked every where on the router and the website it tells you to go to, and no where does it say you can change it, so now it’s stuck on a strict NAT type and I can barely do anything with it without getting kicked out of the wifi. Other than that, it’s an amazing little hotspot to use, unless you want to use it for gaming.

Exact APN Setting
Even though lots of information on ‘how’ to change the critical APN setting so the Nighthawk will work for ATT, there is ‘NO’ instruction in what the APN setting should be! No where on ATT website! Your ATT rep where not provided with the exact APN setting. We spent over 2 hours searching, calling the help desk. Eventually found a setting in an open forum. Not a good first time experience!

NETGEAR Nighthawk 4GLTE MR1100 WIFI Hotspot Router
Fabulous performance and reliability. I purchased this brand new directly from the Netgear website, as a replacement for my old refurbished MR1100 which finally died after 3 years of heavy use. It would not power on anymore. It was delivered overnight to my house in New York City for about a $29 fee.
When I first powered it on, it immediately began downloading and installing the latest software update. This new version proved to give a stronger signal than my previous refurb, and is overall more reliable. I actually went to the AT&T store and got help to set it up on my existing hotspot account.

Folks need to Know items - Read the Specs
Things buyer need to know:
#1 Read the instructions BEFORE you start the install.... the IMEI is inside the case, under the battery.
#2 if you intend to use this as an ALWAYS ON modem, do NOT install the battery, you will eventually destroy it.
#3 if you use it mobile, install battery and take the charger OFF when the battery is topped off.
#4 Follow the Instructions, and it works the 1st time, every time.
#5 if you intend to use this at home, always on, it is best to use an External WiFi Router and turn off the Internal WiFi.... why? the internal WiFi can become overloaded, especially when running SpeedTest. the modem will reboot, but it will stop other users from using WiFi. Using an External WiFi Router takes this problem away.... I can run SpeedTest on my 5g WiFi Router which is hooked to the MR1100 via the Cat5 cable, and it never bogs down.
#6 I have owned this for six months and it always works, even with only 1 bar of signal, I get 2-5Mbps down in worst Prime Time hours in the evenings.
#6 if this is a permanent install for your home, and if you have the access to do so, Please Install an External Antenna... I have the 9dBi Omni from Amazon... you will be much happier with the faster speeds.

I have been using this equipment for quite long time and although the reception has been very good (even for continuous streaming), the battery life is really short and unreliable making the system to practically be conectes 24/7 to the wall vía it’s electrical cord. The unit continuously shots down and / or reboots interrupting our internet connection and making it totally unreliable for work. If you forget your username or password for the app management ... forget it cause it’s almost impossible to retrieve it or reset it.

Awesome with a tiny livable flaw
Pretty amazing device. We live in a 2400 sq ft home and the only time we need to move it to stream is when we go to the basement. The only flaw I’ve found is that the device often overheats and will stop charging. I’ve started unplugging it at night to keep it from being so hot and that has seemed to do the trick. I plan to add a WiFi extender to our arsenal so we don’t have to move it around and it can sit in the best signal spot. This is our only WiFi in the house. We stream HD beautifully!

Very hard to use
Because Netgear support is so hard to get on line or on the phone I took it to Best Buy Geek Squad. It took them about a 1/2 an hour to set up. Even though it's now set up it keeps disconnecting from the Internet. Even when I can get it connected it won't open steaming apps. I'm returning it.

The router works well, was fairly easy to set up and holds a charge for a long time. My only issue is the fact that occasionally will lose service. It reconnects within a minute, but it’s still an annoyance.

Like the option to go from 2G to 5G and offloading. Solid all day battery performance. Display is nice with battery life and basic connection details like number of connections. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is I wish you could set times to auto off instead of having to go into the app to turn the hotspot off every time. Please add this feature.

Horrible
I bought this to replace the old one thst i had for like 6 years. This one was so frustrating to set up. Im not an IT person. The last one i had all i did was plug it in. This thing disconnects constantly. Looks like it gets a great signal but unless im in the same room it is touch and go. I live rurally. My 10 year old hates it and ask me all.the time why I switched, begs me to get the other one back. It throws him off his PS4 constantly. We then have to manully reconnect. Its very frustrating. It says up to 20 things cam be connected. Thats wrong. We msy have 3-5 and it gives me constant trouble. I would love to send this back and get my .money back and go back to the box i had....like seriously!

Casual reboots
24 hours after using the unit it started rebooting randomly. Tried every suggested troubleshooting and solution, battery on/off, cable that came with the product, UPS, hard reboot. Nothing works. Seems that this is a common issue with the product, hundreds of reports and forum discussions.It renders the router useless.

A Campground necessity when traveling!
When the campgrounds get crowded on the weekends, cell towers in the area become congested and evening/nighttime streaming is almost impossible. Crank up the Nighthawk and in minutes we have a much more reliable and stronger signal. Holds a steady increased signal strength and allows for streaming Netflix, HBO, etc. with no dropouts or buffering. A must-have if you travel full-time and spend multiple weeks in fringe signal campgrounds. Highly recommend!

The nighthawk worked perfectly for about 4 months until it no longer sent out a wireless signal. I tried locating the wireless signal from my phone, tablet, laptop, and Roku and none of them show a wireless signal available. I reset it 10 times to no avail. I even plugged in the Ethernet cable from the back of the nighthawk into my laptop with no luck on accessing the internet or being able to access the settings on the hotspot either. Great device while it worked but I took it to the AT

Excellent except for gaming
This mobile hotspot router is fantastic in every way except for online multiplayer gaming. Connection is no issue. Ive experienced no lag. But...if you’re looking for the option of joining your friends in a multiplayer online game, this is not the hotspot router for it. It only gives a Strict NAT and a double NAT at that. There is nothing that you can do to open the NAT or even get a moderate NAT. Otherwise its great for what it does offer, its small, compact and a durable little device. Reliable as well. It keeps a charge for days! Which is fantastic, I actually havent even drained the battery 50% and I use it daily. Ive had it a week so that speaks volumes. I highly recommend this device as long as you dont require an Open NAT for any devices.

Remote work on a Boat? No problem with this router
Using this for Internet access on my boat. I live in a rural area of Oklahoma and have a 36 foot Carver Aft Cabin on Lake Tenkiller. I have a couple of TV's, stereo's and of course everyone has their tablets and phones on the boat. Cell service in this area is spotty at-best. I can get one bar of 4G service with my Verizon phone, and my wife can get two bars with her AT&T phone. When in the slip, no signal at all. Thought I would give this device a try. I added in a 36 dBi gain antenna to this using the two antenna connectors, and even in the slip I get 3 bars of signal with a 36 Mb/s download and 8 Mb/s upload. Everything streams great regardless of where I am on the lake or in the slip. The external antenna makes all the difference. As a note, my external antenna is suction-cupped to a side window to get that signal. I have tested it mounted outside, and in that situation I get 5 full-bars, but since 3-bars is sufficient, I keep it mounted inside. If you are going to keep it plugged in like I do, suggest just removing the battery as it gets hot if plugged in all the time. I highly suggest this. My service provider is Pure Talk Wireless, and when I put my SIM Card in the device, it worked fine. I did make some tweaks to get a little better throughput at the suggestion of the Pure Talk Wireless support team, but while it helped a little, it wasn't 100% necessary. If you aren't technically savvy (I am, don't worry, you should still be able to set this up. If you are a "techie", plenty of tweaks you can make to improve things in the settings.

The hotspot would not work and I had to send it back after Netgear support, AT&T support, and a local employee of a computer fix-it establishment could not get it to work. I'm pretty sure there wasn't anything wrong with it, just nobody who should have known how to make the product work could do so.

Better than nothing
We have poor cell phone service where I live , sometimes 1-2 bars on cell phone. Download speed varies a lot on the Nighthawk, anywhere from 3 mbps to 30 mbps but the upload speed is very seldom 1 mbps. The battery does not seem to hold a charge very long when not being used and if you leave the battery in and the power supply plugged in while using it gets very hot and does not work very well. It is a little better than the Verizon dsl i have been using.

Overpriced, restrictive, lackluster
Overall performance was decent, but doesn't do true carrier aggregation. Netgear locks owners out of any really useful configuration settings and forces firmware upgrades even with battery removed. Newer firmware revisions CAN NOT be rolled back, and lock users out of more and more features all the time. Forget Netgear, they lost a longtime customer.

I purchased my Nighthawk to use on the go and so far 2 weeks in it’s been easy breezy. Set up was easy and the use has been pretty easy as well.

Great for my situation
I’ve been using the M1 for about 18 months as primary internet for a rural cabin. I get 3 bars from the tower and the speed is usually about 8 to 12 mbits/sec which works for zoom calls or streaming on Netflix. It’s been a great way to get high speed internet that would otherwise be impossible. I did have to replace it recently and bought another M1.

Worst one ever
I bought this 1 year ago and because of the lousy service, it has been sitting in the box for the last 5 months. The unit doesn't show your usage as it states, it does not work while travelling and it always shows 1 device connected, even when NOTHING is connected. Don't waste your money. I only gave a 1 star because there were no less ratings.

Off grid
Reception isn't as good as I would like. I've tried moving it to several different areas of my cabin including outside. I never get more than 2 bars but average is 1 bar. I've called to try to replace with a different netgear but they wouldn't do it.
I've had it for 6 months but I'm not there daily so I wasn't able to tell if it worked well till after a few months. But it's better than nothing.

Perfect mobile router
I use the NetGearNight M1 mobile router, when I’m at work or on the go. It’s small and lightweight enough to carry anywhere. My favorite aspect is that wherever I may be, either in the waiting room at the doctors office or a restaurant waiting on my food. I have the piece of mind knowing that I’m connected to a secure network. No more public wifi, where I put myself at risk to identify theft or hackers. By far worth every penney

Hello Faster reliable service!
I live in rural Michigan. There are no cables out here to cut. The choice for internet is dial up phone modem, or a dish in the yard, until now. There is a world of difference between cellular and dish radio signal. No comparison. When I lived in town and switched from dial up to fiber optic municipal, I felt like “Now I’m drinking from a fire hose”. With my M1 MR1100…. rainy days I have internet, I have TV. I live in a real world, No more irritating pause while the page loads, or the tv signal cues up. I love i!

Best Hotsopt for the money
The nighthawk is the best hotspot that you can use. Has long battery run time and pulls in the wifi service without a problem. You can add a flash drive or micro sd card and charge a device. Take it with you anywhere you have service with 2.4ghz & 5.0ghz what more can you ask for. Try the nighthawk MR1100 you wont be sorry unless you are using something else.

Works great out of the box. Just have one little issue. Not much of a range when trying to connect multiple devices. The range is about 15ft. Bought a range extender to increase the range. It has TS-9 connectors which are flimsy at best. Doesn’t seem to do anything for the range. Out of the box is great, but good range.

I have had this little device for a min during covid. Never has failed me yet. In an area at time bought it on att service had 2 to 1 bars of cell service. Placed this in the area after researching service around area and posted it there worked flawlessly no service drop on mmm y phone at time needed it due to one end dead zone and other not. Ran netflix on it while on computer ok s0eeds for what it was. Them moved closer to one tower amd s0eeds increased dramatically. Games on one TV with that TV connected on wifi along woth another smart TV and a roku and 3 cellphones while browsing on one 0hone streaming on roku and games being played all Ata same time download speeds at begging of month cycle was 50 to 60 MBPS. Good speeds for that. Now testing out an external antenna to see what it does at campgrounds that have service or locations I go to.
