Mobile Broadband Router

I have a Nighthawk Mobile router, I recently moved into an apartment with better broadband internet and would like to still use the router as a regular router plugged into my cable modem for wifi. Is this possible? If so how do I configure the router to work when plugged into an ethernet cable from my modem.

 

I have an ATT sim card in it now but they are switching to TMOBILE and I need more stable internet connection for work. 

Any help would be appreciated.

    You can enable ethernet offloading to allow the traffice going through your cable modem instead of your carrier data.

     

    Thanks
