NETGEAR Nighthawk M6 Pro, 5G and 4G LTE Mobile Hotspot Router with 2.8 inch Touchscreen, Ethernet, Wi-Fi 6E, up to 32-Devices (AT&T Unlocked For Global, Verizon, T-Mobile) MR6500 (Black) (Renewed)

Def worth the money. As any mobile modem on the market this one does the job being unlocked. It says att on it when i turn it on but i use my tmobile on it cuz it comes unlocked and works great on the road in truck when need internet. Bought antena extenders which do add a bar or two depending on location. For fraction of the price worth it.

I purchased this along with an external antenna for work use when out in a fully air conditioned field office but away from a wired internet connection, worked great when it did, and provided our laptops and mobile phones a decent internet connection except one major issue:over the course of a workshift, I found that I would be forced to reboot or even on occasion force a factory reset as randomly this device would completely fail to provide an internet connection, regardless that the signal indicator showed 5G UC and always had full bars, I would still completely lose internet connection and unable to even load google on both our phones and laptops until we rebooted and/or factory reset the device.This forced us to take time away from my work to troubleshoot the device and this would happen at least 3 or more times per workshift. So not sure if this is just a defect with my unit, but seeing quite a few other reviews having issues too, I think it may be safe to say this renewed Netgear MR6500, you cannot depend on this device for work, and needless to say, i'd imagine this would be annoying for anyone who games online or does anything that needs a stable and constant internet connection.

This is a good product. The touchscreen setup is great. Unfortunately ATT does not have a good signal in the area where I wanted to use this. But I will recommend for anyone interested in Internet without wires who live in a good ATT supported area.

The media could not be loaded. This little box arrived faster than I was expecting. The folks at my local AT&T store sent me home with a SIM card. At first I was thrown because while I’ve changed SIM cards in a lot of phones over the years, this device takes a nano SIM card. I could not see the performation on the SIM card initially to break it down from a regular SIM to a Nano SIM card. Once I figured that out setup was easy-peasy.Mine didn’t come with any directions and I’m an RTFM kind of person. The directions suggest that if I use it plugged in to remove the battery to help with heat dissipation. That’s a pretty bad design, honestly, and even without the battery in it I can feel some real heat from the device. So just an FYI for anyone who sets up first and reads the manual only when something goes wrong. I pressed the power button on the side for 2-seconds and it took a few minutes to power up, find a signal and enter the setup routine, all of which it did automatically. I only had to follow the directions in the touchscreen and I was online in no time. I’m only getting 30mbps up and 11mbps down from my second floor office which is more than enough for what I need. There is an external antenna made by Netgear just for this and it plugs into two cute ports that have doors covering them. I may get that to see how much it improves speeds if moving the device to different locations in my house doesn’t get a better 5G signal. It’s not bad for the money. It’s small, cute, and easy to setup and connect to my devices.I would have given it 5 stars from the start if heat dissipation was designed better.

This works good nothing was damaged and good condition

I bought this device refurbished, and feel I got a decent warranty and a "properly functional" item for the price (at one third of retail), but there are some common functional issues many have reported, and it's likely why this one and many others are being returned. The device doesn't broadcast very far, even when plugged into AC power with the battery removed, and it gets quite hot at moments though not yet overly concerning, which seems to be a result of searching for less available 5G signals. Speaking of operation with the battery removed, there is no way to power off the device when plugged to AC power without a battery installed except to pull the plug. Maybe this was considered acceptable by the design team, but there is no documentation in the owners manual describing this use case scenario, and unplugging a sensitive electronic device for power off seems reckless/abusive of the device. Speaking of 5G I fail to see any speed difference compared to 4G under my useage patterns, and YouTube videos still sometimes lag/stall indefinitely (likely due to 5G cutting in and out). The touch screen and controls on the device are laggy which along with adult male sized fingers sometimes leads to inaccurate selections and further laggy response times as it stalls and/or restarts in order to engage said wrong selections. The device also continues to broadcast my SSIDs despite my repeated selection to not broadcast them, which I hope will be solved in a future firmware update. Overall I've decided to keep this device due to the lowered price point and it meeting most of my needs for a mobile hotspot, but I'm a bit disappointed that this is what's considered a flagship device. They have a long way to catch up to hardwired non portable routers.

AT&T would not let me add this to my unlimited plan.
