So why is that? It does not support Sprint. It supports AT&T, which has no reception where I live. But sprint, it is about 120 down 20 up vs AT&T 3 down 1 up. Sprint does do Sim cards, so why does it not support Sprint? Software flash update? The fact you did not know Sprint has Sim cards?

Verizon has its own techinical approval process to allow a device to work in its network. MR1100 didn't have that approval. If you use Verizon SIM card in MR1100, it may work initially, but there is a chance that Verizon may block the service to MR1100. 

Thanks

Sprint uses CDMA, ATT uses GMS. Verizon also uses CDMA. Around here you can use page plus on verizon, sprint and ATT, Tracfone on Verizon networks, worked for me today, you just have to enter the correct apn name, For Tracfone on verizon, I used tracfone.vzwebt for the name, put mobile broadband for the APN, for PDP, I put ip4ip6, and for PDP roaming I put Ip4, none for authentication. You would have to get a sim card from tracphone, or could get a sim from Pageplus cellular on sprint. Let me know if you can get the sim, The supplier should tell you the APN settings. My router model number is MR1100-1A1NAS. I did not buy it from ATT. Next month I probably will switch to a verizon plan because I would pay a good bit less by going to either the tracfone or pageplus cellular, like about 35 bucks less. Ask and I will tell you where I got it. It did really well today on verizon. Dont worry to much about the CDMA verses GSM. All carriers will very soon, this year, infact go to GMS. Later this year, Netgear is coming out with a new version of this router, one that will run 5G. I will find a plan that supports 5g and get that new router, for sure.
