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

Interesting... If OTR charged you for a product or service that didn't work, it seem like time for a call to the credit card company to see if the charge can be disputed.
As for "neverthrottled"... Again, interesting - this time that their name is for 22GB BEFORE YOU CAN BE THROTTLED... And "it hasn't happened yet" isn't any comfort 'cause any time they choose, they CAN for any reason they'd like. Which is pretty much the same BS Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile ALL do with their "unlimited" plans... "Why yes, your plan is unlimited. You get 15GB of data and after that we may throttle you down to 600KB."
It seems like there are quite a few of these "third parties" showing up, selling AT&T or Verizon (and maybe T-Mobile). I'm not sure if they'e reputable and legitimate or not. Many have a very simple website, often with NO phone. And no way to reach a human for help when there's a problem. I was dumb enough to THINK OTR Mobile was legitimate... Right up 'til they screwed umpteen customers by moving to an inferior network and RAISING their prices. I'm a lot more cynical now about these places that purport to provide unlimited service on AT&T or Verizon...

Agreed about the 3rd parties. Unfortunately I don't have much of a choice. If ATT internet or ATT fixed wireless would hurry up and make it across the country Id have no problem going with them. And I would say this plan is a little different than verizons. My parents have a verizon hotspot, and as soon as they hit 15 GB it throttles them until the next billing cycle. There's no up and down. I'm not trying to convince anyone, I'm just sharing some the info.
And I have reported OTR mobile to the Consumer Protection Division of the States Attorney Generals Office regarding them offering a fraudulent product and not returning money when they could not deliver. We will see if that goes anywhere.
