Nighthawk M7 Pro – How to install a third-party eSIM using a QR code?
Hello,
I own a NETGEAR Nighthawk M7 Pro purchased from Amazon Germany.
The device is running the latest available firmware, and I am using the latest version of the NETGEAR App. The router is registered to my NETGEAR account and is working correctly with a physical SIM card.
I already have a valid eSIM QR code from my mobile operator (LMT, Latvia).
I would like to install this eSIM profile on my Nighthawk M7 Pro.
However, I cannot find any option to:
- Add my own eSIM
- Scan a QR code
- Import an eSIM profile
- Download a third-party eSIM profile
In the NETGEAR App I can see the "Buy an eSIM" marketplace, but I cannot find any way to add an existing eSIM obtained from another provider.
Could you please confirm whether the Nighthawk M7 Pro supports installation of third-party eSIM profiles via QR code?
If it does, please provide the exact menu path and step-by-step instructions required to install a third-party eSIM profile.
If this feature is not supported, please confirm whether the device only supports eSIM plans purchased through the NETGEAR eSIM marketplace.
Thank you for your assistance.
Kind regards, Rafails Deifts

@ Adroh,
I already know, I have already have two mobile MR7450 (unlocked) routers !
In my oppinion, M7Pro don't support E-Sim. If you want work with E-Sim, you should buy M7.
@ Adroh,
I think you have misunderstood the above post. I already know about that, the above user kondyba has a mobile router MH7150 device which is aka (M7 Pro) which does have eSIM support. :D

Correction to my post above I meant M7 portable.
Have a look and check your online "Quick install guide" for your router hardware device!
