Does the nighthawk come equipped with hotspot or not?

Does this nighthawk come already loaded with hotspot from NETGEAR? Or is just a body and I have to shop around for a unlimited that no one offers??? please give me some insight before I purchase this.

    Hi Gizz1e

     

    Welcome to NETGEAR Community!

     

    There are two SKUs of the Nighthawk M1 Mobile router in North America, one is for AT&T (SKU: MR1100-1A1NAS or MR1100-2A1NAS) and one is for retail (SKU: MR1100-100NAS). You can get the retail version on any of our Authorized resellers. However, the retail version will not support Verizon since it has not been certified/approved by Verizon for use on their network even though the LTE bands it supports overlap bands supported by Verizon. But you can use the retail version on T-Mobile and AT&T. As for data plan, you may need to search around in order to get better data plan from carriers.
