How do I know if my Nighthawk MR1100 At&T is unlocked?
I bought the mobile router several months ago from ebay. The seller stated that it was unlocked. I've been using at&t (it's origin carrier) since I got it and want to switch to metro pcs. When I transfered my metro pcs sim card from my phone to my router just to test it out, it gave me an error of "Phone not allowed mm#6".
Does this mean that my router is locked and the seller lied to me? Or does this just mean that my sim card is locked to my phone?

Welcome to NETGEAR Community!
Please provide the device SKU (e.g. MR1100-100NAS). This can be checked on the box of the product or on the barcode label

Good morning/afternoon,
Kind of the same issue just bought a new M1100 and switched my T-Mobile Sim card over so I can utilize the TS-9 ports and on boot up receive a Registration Error. The Sim works in the T-Mobile hotspot modem no problem I even switched over the APN for the M1 however the GMM (PS) state: Deregistered and PS state: Not attached. The SKU number is MR1100-100NAS from what I gather this one is the unlocked version.
How do I know if it is unlocked?
