Can I use an AirCard 782s cradle with an AirCard 810s?

Hi there,

 

I have an AirCard 810s and a AirCard 782s cradle.

 

The NG website indicates that the 782s cradle is only compatible with the 782s and 785s AirCards. However, the NG website also indicates that the cradle that is recommended for the 810s (the DC112a) is compatible with (among others) the 782s Aircard.

 

Refer to:

http://www.netgear.com/service-providers/products/mobile/mobile-hotspots/78XS-cradle.aspx#tab-compatibility

 

So I'm wondering if the 782s cradle is actually compatible with the 810s but that it is an older model and they haven't updated their website.

 

I did try the NG online chat but the consultant simply read the website back to me.

 

Any experience/ideas on this?

 

Thanks.

  • Update. The 810s aircard seems to work with the 782s cradle. It fits and a PC connected to the cradle's ethernet port can access the net through the aircard.
