4G LTE Mobile Router (MR1100) Nighthawk M1 4G LTE Mobile Router

is it easy to hack this hotspot or can you control who gets wifi access? if the user isn't allowed it will show up on a ID screen and the owner can allow user access or block a user not allowed? i'm paying about $50/month for unlimited use but the tower or router doesn't have a blocking feature or not allowed setting which makes it easy or possible for a hacker to steal wifi. i had a small at&t small hotspot when they first started selling hotspots and it worked very well but it was expensive to buy more data..

    Or you can just use strong wifi passwords. And if you notice anyone else joins, change the password.
