MR1100 Router on non ATT networks
I set my router up today for a verizon net3work. Added the Verizon ibnfo for the APN. Was told in this forum, it might work, biut would have to re-apply the changes every time I reztarted my router. This is in fact UNTRUE. I sdet it up, connected to a verizon bnetwork, shut iot down, put my ATT sim back in and the APN settings are still there. And it worked excellent on verizon.
So, if any of you all need to use this excellent mobile broadband router and dont like ATT, YOU CAN DO IT!

As a user, you can use any carrier's SIM with the device. But based on our experiences with Verizon, we can't claim MR1100 supports Verizon. Some Amazon customers had the same complaints that MR1100 is not working on Verizon.
It was actuallly working on a tracfone sim, which was running on verizon, it even shoowed verizon as the network. It was said that vewrizon would shurt down the router, but maybe not since the actyuall plan was through tracfone. A friend let me try it, after cionfiguring the APN settings, worked just fine. One not for netgear, when I biuld my computers, I start with myt processor ands build around that, with internet, I start withg my MR1100 and will biuld/buy based obn what works with this router, the router being the prerequisit I start with. When you all come out wth the 5g version of this router, I am definitely buying it, and any service I get WILL have to run on my netgear router. This is by far, the best one I have put my hands on.
