This is the easiest piece of technology I have ever set up! I'm an old fart and had no problem getting it to work. Very fast, same speed I had with wired internet. Highly recommend this product. Some say it's expensive, I say you get what you pay for!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Durable and Reliable unlocked 5G Mobile Hotspot Router with all the bells and whistle
on October 18, 2022
Posted by: CopperKid
The MR6150 is a reliable 5G mobile router. I have heard about Netgear's lineup of Nighthawk Mobile routers and the MR6150 was the first Nighthawk Mobile router I have used. I am impressed at how robust and durable the build quality of this device. They have packed so much advanced tech into this portable format. The 5G radio powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon x62 provides one of fastest 5G radios in the Qualcomm lineup to date. The MR6150's built in antennas are very sensitive that despite being internal, it has been outperforming my 5G Samsung S21 indoors, and much more so outdoors. Using this device in mobile is where it really shines. On road trips, it provides reliable internet to the whole family. The kids are into streaming so the demand for data is intense. The MR6150 has proven itself to be a reliable and fast hotspot and my phone's hotspot function just could not compare. Upon arrival to the hotel or at home, I plug it in as an Internet gateway, providing data to my wired devices. The internal battery will keep it powered for most trips away from a power source. It has WiFi 6 technology, so newer devices will transfer data faster, like when I backup photos from my phone to my laptop after a trip to park. Data speed will of course depend on your Cellular provider, but since this is an unlocked device, you can use it with all providers. It's just a great device all around and certainly it has become indispensable after I have realized how convenient everything is after owning this equipment. The tech is so current and top of the line, that this will provide me many years before I even think about upgrading. Netgear, as I have learned, has a companion app, which makes it easy for me to setup and change settings in the device if it's in my pocket or in my backpack, as well as the LCD screen with simplified icons, navigating through the settings is easy. After a week of use, I have memorized the menus and the learning curve is not at all that much. Very much impressed after the first several days of ownership. Highly recommended if you need 5G speed data on the go or as a constant source of home internet as a gateway device. It's a bit pricey, but considering you getting high-end specs, it's worth the money.
The fact that sometimes it freezes up or doesn't respond at all. Sometimes it just restarts for no reason anyways so there is that. Other than that it's nice. Problem is I can't use it for a certain game called Warframe but that could be with my provider. Port forwarding didn't work either which caused 2 hours of annoyance till I finally gave up. Overall, I love it a lot. First time I ever used one and I gotta say first impression are great.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The RJ45 connector was essential for my application and works perfectly. The M6 has abundant settings to customize its operation and the battery is larger than other devices I've used in the past providing lasting operation.
