How to get the unlock code prompt on AT&T Nighthawk MR1100
I have a AT&T Nighthawk MR1100 through OTR Mobile. They are switching to T-Mobile based service so I had to get the unlock code and a T-Mobile post paid SIM. When I put the T-Mobile SIM in and power i...
If you can connect to T-Mobile network without entering the code, your device was unlocked.
Thanks
Thanks. And no I have had 1 on blast for past week I think maybe a bit more. Honestly for me about the same as it was on ATT far as speeds, bit slower. I was getting max 77 Mbps down and 14 Mbps up on ATT. I am getting max 38 Mbps down 6 Mbps up on TMobile. But with understanding. I live closer to Dallas and the number they give me is for Minnisota. Ping times are around 40 ms higher then I was getting to Dallas which was usually 37 now I am at near 80ms. TMobile appears to be using ATT towers here so great on that, but the push to MN is a mistake. If you just watch TV that isn't an issue, if you play online games it is. I have had OTR since Sept. last year and your right that the CS has been great. The downside is at least when they were with AT&T was losing broadband data, and having to get in chat with them. All fine and good, unless like me it has happened the past 2 Saturdays(I have 1 still locked to AT&T). I spent a total of nearly 3 hours in chat hold today, just to get them to reset the data. Yes them going to blast and covids was the perfect storm for OTR. BTW they said they will unlock legacy customers devices for free, and the cost for the new plan lowered to $65 a month.
Thank you very much for bringing me up to speed. I've only been with OTR a few months, first on the Velocity 2, a nice little device but I have more devices than it can handle and the Nighthawk has been awesome. And I just read on their website this notice they put out that they will waive the cost of the Unlock. Thanks again for all the encouraging news and I look forward to the switch to T-Mobile. I use them as my carrier and know I will get good reception here in Arkansas, anything beats the hell outta Comcast, or as Trump calls them, CONCast, he's not shy about telling the world the truth! Very good to hear from another satisfied OTR customer, take care and Godspeed!

I live South of Fayetteville and it's not horrible, but not great. personally I am using this till Ozarksgo installs fiber, rumor has it as "by summer" for my area.
BTW you can up both wifi power and connected devices by using a router connected to the nighthawk. Just make sure to go into the nighthawk and shut off DNS server so that the router assigns IP addresses. I use linksys EA6900 for around $60.
