Easy setup and works great with prepaid Sim card

Using the NETGEAR for traveling in RV. Put a prepaid Smart SIM card in so it will connect to either TMobile, AT&T or Verizon whichever is strongest. Does well with Data Offloading by connecting to available Wi-Fi which saves on using up prepaid minutes. Hope it works just as well in Canada.

This box is amazing and simple to use. I cut the monopoly wires to my house with this device and it is performing as well as wired internet connections for my needs. I've added a MIMO external antenna and a wireless high speed router to it and have had no problems with internet connectivity.

I will never purchase another Netgear product.

Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2021

Verified Purchase

We've had the Netgear Nighthawk M1 for about 4 months now and it worked well for a brief period. We begin experiencing an issue where the router would get stuck in a constant reboot loop. We had to do a reset of the router to fix it, setup the internet again before we could reconnect our devices. It seemed that if we tried to connect more than 2-3 devices at once it would overwhelm the router and start the continuous rebooting. We're pretty simple people and it's just 2 of us so it's not like we have 47 smart devices connected. Usually just 1-2 laptops, sometimes a TV and sometimes our cell phones. We learned quickly that we couldn't even use our Blink cameras because that would overwhelm the router. Netgear claims that the M1 will support up to 20 devices. Light personal use of the device determined that was a lie. For example, I work from home and am almost always connected to my laptop, if my husband would connect his laptop and either one of us was doing any sort of video streaming (YouTube or Zoom/Teams calls) the router would reboot. No TV's, no cell phone browsing, no Alexa's, no gaming, just very simple laptop usage. I had read through numerous forum posts with others of this same issue and there didn't seem to be a fix. This issue got continuously worse through the next 4 months and it went from happening maybe 1-2 times per week to 1-2 times per day. Until one day it stopped disbursing WiFi all together. I tried all the typical troubleshooting, rebooting, resettting, unplugging, removing the SIM, etc. Nothing worked. The device was on and showed LTE signal but there was no WiFi signal and also hardwiring the device to a laptop did not work. This is when I learned how much of a scam that Netgear really is. Netgear offers only 3 months of phone/email support for their devices before you must begin paying to speak to someone via phone or email. Kinda crazy that you get 3 months of support and my device crapped out after 4. I searched through their forums online and saw multiple posts where others had the exact same issue, Netgear representatives were no help other than suggesting a reset of the device and there did not seem to be any resolution to the problem. I searched through support/help articles on their website and nothing mentioned the issue I was having. My device is supposed to have a 1 year warranty but I was struggling to find a way to even contact Netgear to try and get a replacement product. Finally after scouring the deepest depths of their website, I found an option to log a support ticket to do a hardware check of your device if you were wanting a replacement product. I logged the ticket and received a number that I must call within 24 hours or my ticket would be cancelled. I called and spoke with a gentleman who asked if the backlight was on on the device which it was. He then told me that "since the device turns on that he cannot continue troubleshooting with me unless I pay for their technical support". I attempted to clarify as there could be plenty of issues with the device other than if it turns on or not. He further explained that that is the extent of their hardware check and they will not warranty the device if it turns on unless I pay for additional support. Keep in mind this support is $80 for 6 months of support. Insane. Luckily the day after this router died, I got an email that my Starlink order had shipped and was coming within a week. Not worth the hassle for me to continue to fight this as I won't have a need for this product in a few days. I did want to write a review to hopefully warn others not to waste money on this trash device. Before you purchase this or any Netgear product, please look up Netgear on the BBB website and skim through the complaints and reviews. I wish I would have before we bought this piece of trash. We ordered an Alcatel router from Amazon to get us through until our Starlink gets installed but that thing is already twice the product the Nighthawk M1 is for 1/3 the price. Please save yourself some headache and order a different device.

Our family has an RV, and depend a good amount on internet, when we use it, along with weekend events.

The biggest obstacle was setting up the APN for ATT, which was able to fix by searching the internet.

Tough To Set Up, But Well Worth The Effort.

I was going to send this back but decided to give it 'one more try'. I'm happy to report it all worked out. I contacted my carrier tech support, who hit some magic button, and VIOLA! It works! And works very well. This thing is quite fast, latency is about on par with my fiber optic internet service! Yeah, it's fast. The trouble I was having was in setting up the APN section of the router. The manual doesn't give you much information, and simply guessing what info goes in that section won't help you get going. Plus, there are features that you cannot simply turn on, you need approval from your carrier.

After getting it going I did a speed test, nothing spectacular, but 47MBPS (Bytes, not bits) down and 25MBPS up isn't too shabby for something not yet fine tuned. I'm no power user so that works for me just fine. I use YouTube and stream music more than I watch TV so this will be just fine. At 47MBPS I can stream 2 videos at one time if I choose, not that I would.

This unit has a rather large battery as compared to the entire package, but that's a good thing. I have no idea how long it takes to charge one up, and probably never will know how long it lasts since I plan on tethering it to my laptop or desktop computers. It also works without a battery installed if you do like I'm going to do, tether it to my computers.

I bought this in preparation for an Arizona snowbird trip next month. Not getting any answers from the RV parks in Arizona I decided to find my own solution. 4G is plenty fast for myself. At any rate my cell carrier limits me to 60GB per month, with the threat of throttling my speed if I surpass that. I probably will based on what I use now, about 3GB per day.

For those interested I found out that Google Chrome has a feature for YouTube where you can kill the video and just listen to the audio portion of YT videos. Since a lot of my YT usage is advice type videos I can kill the video portion and enjoy the audio knowing that I'm not racking up half a gig for that 25 minute 'video'.

The answers are always out there, you just need to know how to ask the questions.

Poor battery

It seems that this model of modem has very common battery issues. My first unit was not working at all. The second one refused to charge every now and then. One of my colleagues who got the same modem also had battery issues...

Works great with a cellphone Sim card

Reviewed in Canada on July 8, 2021

I'm using this with a Telus cellphone Sim Card and it works great. I wanted to off-load the hotspot from my phone as it taxes the battery too much. Having a dedicated device to serve as a hotspot is better.

The Telus Sim Card does not come with this unit. So, I have two plans for cellphone, one with my actual phone and a second one with the hotspot. Youn can link the two cards (each have their one seperate line) on the Telus app and monitor the data download. Yes it cost me more than just one but the "unlimited plan" is really unlimited but after you spent all your fast speed data, you are as they call it: "reduced speed" to 512 kps......which is way too slow to do anything beside emails.

This is my main internet access therefore, i neeed the full deal. I have twice the same package. Yes I pay double but, there is 100 Gb fast speed available and paying for extra top-up data is too expensive.

I can swap the Sim cards from my phone and the hotspot and vice versa

Telus have a similar device: the Smart Hub, which is only available in BC and Alberta and a MIFI (jetpack) but both device weren't available and Netgear had it and it works great.

Highly recommend this hotspot especially if there is no fast cabled internet in your area or if you traveling or RVing (which I am doing).

Setup is very simple, you turn the device on, install the app on your phone on or create an account online, after loggin in, it asks you to change the admin password, connect you device to it, the wifi passwords are written on the display of the device and voila.

This hotspot connect on two networks 2.4 and 5 Ghz. Not 5G as 3G and 4G. 2.4 and 5 Ghz are bandwith like if you have a cordless phone/ wireless heaphones etc. for me the 5 Ghz is faster that the 2.4 but sometime causes interference/noise in my headphones. You can use both wifi and Rj45 cable.

Also you can add a MIMO antenna with TS9 connectors to maximize the reception. I bought one but I haven't notice a huge difference for now that I am in town but more in the rural area, this might help.

Disclaimer: I believe that it should work with other providers but don't quote me on this, ask your own providers. And be aware that the reception might be affected with the area that you are in, especially if you are traveling.

The best 4G/LTE router... period!

Reviewed in Canada on August 18, 2021

This device may seem to be a bit on the pricey side, but leaps and bounds better than any other other device I've encountered. It takes a micro SIM, and worked flawlessly and painlessly with TELUS.

The admin setup was very easy (note: the default password is under the battery, but it's not necessary, because the first time you go to 192.168.1.1, it will prompt you to set your own password). It will also work without the setup - just use the default, random WiFi password that's clearly displayed on the screen.

The display clearly states the amount of data consumed on the plan, and a great feature tells you how many days are left. Tapping the button will scroll between different display screens on the device.

A standout feature is that the Nighthawk has a RJ45, and supports 2.4GHz as well as 5GHz, and like any regular router, you can disable either of the wifi antennas if you don't need them, for example, if you want to connect this directly to a desktop as its primary/only source of internet.

In that scenario, another great feature is that you can simply unplug the battery. The device works perfectly with no battery - it simply says battery 0%, no nags, or anything else to indicate a "problem".

I have not yet extensively used this, but it seems snappy in both the interface and internet speed.
