Nighthawk M5 5G WiFi 6 Mobile Router(MR5200) use in the Philippines

Does anyone know if the Nighthawk M5 5G WiFi 6 Mobile Router(MR5200) GSM (AT&T/ T-Mobile Compatable) will work with any Philippine wireless carriers (Globe, Smart). Netgear's website doesn't list wireless compatibility (or I couldn't find it) for providers in Asia.

  • While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge. In this case, you aren't asking about a standard router.

    You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:

    Mobile Routers, Hotspots & Modems

    Those things are very different from the standard Netgear routers covered in this section.

    I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.

    In the meantime you could visit the support pages:

    Support | NETGEAR

    Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.

    You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.

    I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.

    M5 NAS version you are refering here doesn't have correct band support for Philippine. You can get the M5 EUS versiom. It supports the most of 4G and 5G bands used in Philippine.
