Data Transfer

• After testing we got very nice speeds from this
  M1 router ( https//www.store4g.com/netgear-nighth
  awk-m1-mr1100/ ). At indoors it could deliver up
  to 70-80 mbit / s download and about 60 mbit / s
  upload. In generally, the speed depends on many
  factors. Among other things, the damping of the
  signal from windows, buildings and other
  obstacles. You are also limited by the load on
  the mobile masts, which are used by the router.
• The Nighthawk M1 supports 4x Carrier Aggregation
  (and 4 4 MIMO). It can open more data streams
  to the mobile end, and combine it to one
  connection (if the provider supports it). This is
  a clear advantage.
• Even though the router is very compact, there is
  still room for 2x TS-9 connectors. These are used
  if an external antenna is to be connected
  (optional). Its quite impressive that this is
  also an option.

Also connect via Ethernet cable

• Computers or smart devices can be connected via
  Wi-Fi connection (2.4 or 5 GHz), beside, there is
  also an Ethernet port behind the router so you
  can use a wired connection. When running
  wirelessly (Wi-Fi), up to 20 Wi-Fi devices can be
  connected at the same time.
• Compared to fixed-mounted mobile broadband, the
  Nighthawk M1 is slower, but it is also not
  intended as a fixed network connection at home.
• If youre nervous about clearing your data
  packet, data offloading is an option. When the
  router has known Wi-Fi network within range, it
  automatically connects to this. Leave the Wi-Fi
  zone switched back to the mobile connection.

Display on the router

• The detailed thing is displayed on the screen of
  the M1 router. From the screen you can view the
  current status of connections, batteries,
  connected devices, etc.. You can also see the
  name of the network and password to use. If you
  dont want to show this, you could disable the
  display in the settings.
• If you need to share content from a USB key on
  the network, it can be connected to either a USB
  2.0 or USB 3.0 (Type C) port on the back of the
  router. The USB part is used via a browser
  interface on the computer. The files can also be
  viewed via the Netgear app for Android and
  iPhone.
• Immediately it does not seem like a special
  obvious function. At any rate, I could not make
  it appear as a network drive on my PC.
• The router has a wide range of features built-in,
  so you can use it in almost every connection. The
  web interface or app is very simple and very
  user-friendly, though it requires basic knowledge
  about networks and routers.
• You either run battery operation with Nighthawk
  M1 or connect a solid power supply. Netgear
  promises up to 10 hours of operation on one
  charge.

Pros and cons

• Advantage Easy installation and clear display
  Fast upload and download speeds with low response
  times Supports both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz and
  Carrier Aggregation Possibility of connecting
  external antennas Long battery life
• Disadvantages High price Occasionally mobile
  data noise on nearby speakers USB interface to
  work is robust

6
Conclusion

• The Netgear Nighthawk M1 delivers remarkable
  performance on the mobile network. If you want to
  stay connected on the go, there is simply no
  better way. It is definitely a top grade product.
  It delivers everything you expect plus a little
  extra. The most negative thing I can find is the
  price. Speaking of the price, another
  1Gbps Huawei E5788u-96a (https//www.store4g.com/h
  uawei-e5788-mobile-wifi-prime/ ) is more
  expensive.
