Hello jworth12

Do you know if the DC112A would work with the Aircard 781s Unite Pro Hotspot? Searching for this has been a nightmare. Netgear doesnt list the 781s as a compatible device but other articles state 78xs will work with the DC112A.

Hello jworth12
At this time, we have two cradle products available in the market, DC112A and DC113A. Neither of these products are currently available in NORTH AMERICA.
DC112A is available in Australia, Middle East and Europe via various ISPs and online retailers. This device is not compatible with mobile hotspots in North America.
DC113A is a retail product available in Europe via Amazon. It has been tested with some NA devices as it’s a retail product so customers can use it in North America. Compatible list can be found in the FAQ here: https://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/26864
We have had instances where customers in North America have been advised to purchase DC112A from Australia. We cannot guarantee that their hotspot will be compatible with the DC112A as it has not been officially tested or certified.
