Very thorough review, thanks!

Thanks for your review, I currently have a MR1100 through FirstNet with an unlimited data package. looking to upgrade to the m6 Pro

Excellent video Thank you

Hi there, I have a M5 for 18 month now as my main internet access, when the battery is inside and connected it gets over heated badly, even there is an overheating system but it comes on maybe once a month while it is overheated all the time when it is connected! So I believe the reason you have to remove the battery is to prevent overheating. thanks for the good video. by the way the crazy price is 999Euros in Germany for M6 pro and still 835Euros for M5 after 2 years I purchased, it is crazy

A friend had an Unlimited Plus hotspot line switched to a limited 25GB plan with $10 per 2GB overages when he asked for 5G access. He told them three times to not change the plan and the agent did it anyway.

Amazing review!

Thanks for sharing

I'm a tower climber an att has been rolling on new site builds South of Dallas and att has the most band width ive seen between every carrier. Near cities Verizon will max out at 5 band widths. Att runs 8 or 9.. it's a pain to work on but.. BUTT.. I expect att to be one of the first mobile internet to go unlimited when they have a structured mainframe to handle the data of internet use like home internet.

Thank you

Netgear M6 seemed ideal product. I kept waiting for it to come back in stock. Even went to a few AT&T stores hoping to find one. No dice, nobody has seen these in months. I suspect Netgear would wave vaguely at "supply chain issues". I have given up and picked up a T-Mobile KVD21 which has no data cap for a good price. I don't like KVD21 bulk, nor denial of external antenna ports but it delivers in spades on high speed data.

It should be noted that there are actually 3 versions of this Netgear M6 Nighthawk hotspot, MR6110 (the base), MR6500 (AT&T Pro), and MR6400 (Dish, not rev'd here but is also "Pro" equiv)... and some regional sub-models that no one should touch. The functional difference between these models are the bands they connect to, the MR6400 is far and away the best version because it connects to more bands excluding mmW which is about as useful as the WIFI 6E is, it isn't. The MR6400, however, is only available thru Dish in selected cities with Dish 5G (not satellite) plan. My mother is in rural Ohio with very poor internet options available at her address, still testing but best option I've evaluated for her yet. Additionally, the MR6400 will work fine on AT&T or T-Mobile networks, just have to buy through Dish though device is unlocked.

I spent hours researching different data plans that could allow for more data usage, and after a phone call to a local att retailer, I found that there is an unlimited plan available if your account is set up as a business/commercial account for around $70/month.

Good info, thanks a lot. Have you noticed any improvements in LTE cell fringe areas? Speed, but more particularly sensitivity on the low-band fringes? The MR1100 we have is “just ok” sensitive on B12 and B14 and even less on B5. iPhone 13 gets several dB more signal, all things being equal. Worse, it suffers from de-sensitation: literally where we are on the Blue Ridge Parkway right now, with directional antennas I can get -86dBm RSRP and -10dB RSRQ, normally plenty for a magnificent connection, but 500kbps is all there is to be had, and it’s not the throttling.

Just looked up your video because I was looking into the M6 pro after netgear offered to sell me an unlocked one for $999. The weird requirement to remove the battery and plug into wall power might be related to this entry I found in the user manual: "FCC regulations restrict the operation of this device in the 5.925-7.125 GHz band to indoor use only. 6 GHz is available only when the device is powered by AC adapter connected to AC mains. The device cannot be used outdoors on 6 GHz, as required by FCC/IC rules." Apparently, by law, they can't let you just go anywhere pumping out 6GHz signals.

So, I have the model that you referred to in the graphic at the beginning, the Nighthawk MR1100 with AT&T. I have a "grandfathered" AT&T plan that I purchased in May 2018. I bought this model after watching your April 2018 video that announced that hotspots purchased before that date in early May 2018 would get the grandfathered AT&T plan. This hotspot and plan have served me SOOOO well over the past 4+ years giving me (for all intents and purchases) true unlimited, unthrottled cellular Internet. I called AT&T regarding this upgrade and they would NOT let me keep my grandfathered data plan. Are you saying that based upon your information I CAN get one of these new Nighthawks and keep my grandfathered plan but just ask AT&T to "not provision" the device for 5g? This would give me better LTE than my Nighthawk MR1100 (and better WiFi)? Then would I just use it as a 4G/LTE device with the hope that someday I could have them "turn-on" 5G if they allow me to keep my other plan? Thanks for all the great information.

What does it matter when you can't get a plan from AT&T that is unlimited hotspot connections? Easy to run out data so fast from streaming when you are only given 50 GB per month from AT&T.

what is the difference between the M5 and the M6? And what makes the M5, which is older, much more expensive than the newer M6 to buy?

This video goes over the features of the M6. The biggest difference will be the modem and lack of support for AT&T's mid-band 5G.

Totally depends on your needs and use case.

Do the m6 and the M6 pro have a problem with overheating with extended use? I have the original MR1100 and the device/battery overheats after 1-2 hrs of use. Those little devices pushing higher data content doesn’t sound possible if in the end the thing overheats trying to process all that data.

@MobileInternetResourceCenter

Жыл бұрын

We've never really fielded any overheating issues with the MR1100, nor the M6. However, if you're in a weak signal area - modems do have to work extra hard to keep a connection. If that's the case, it would benefit from signal enhancing methods to get a better signal to work with. If that's not the case, then you likely have an issue with your device.

I'm considering buying an unlocked M6 Pro. Will it use the global GSM network? Thanks

These devices can connect more than 30 devices at once, but it would also depend on the data plan that you use with it, signal strength and how large your house is. You'd likely need a truly unlimited plan, or one with a very large chunk of data, in order to keep up with all of that demand. Here's our guide that goes over ways to get lots of data: www.rvmobileinternet.com/unlimited

I own one is fantastic technologies,however at@t should be a shame....no unlimited plans available. I bought this device to replaced my home network. I used this device in europe with vodafone some months I get unlimited data plan for 39 euro. The regular plans are 200 gb data for 39 euro. The other problem is 6 and 6E is not ratfied standard. Every vendor implements the way they think until the real standard comes out. That is why there are some different vendors that are not compatible with each other. Intel and Netgear as example here. My laptop I bought intel AX210 Killer 1675x but can't see the 6 network on Netgear.

@MobileInternetResourceCenter I have had AT&T for many of my businesses for more than a decade, and I can tell you with absolute certainty that all of the data plans are throttled after 2G of data. AT&T monthly data plans for hotspots is the best option, as of now.. If I signed up for a long term agreement, I'd have to pay more than the $50 monthly. I was quoted $65 for long term. I offered to pay AT&T $50 month on a long term contract, since we have a half dozen M6 units. But they didn't give me that option, so we went for month to month option.

We personally have grandfathered Unlimited Plus hotspot lines for $40/month on business.. all unlimited, just subject to network management after 22GB of usage. Use hundreds of GBs a month at full speed in most markets.
