Nighthawk M7 Ultra (Telstra)
I am looking at buying this product to use at home. I have tried a Nighthawk 4G M2 model and it does not give me the WiFi range required for a camera setup for the backyard. Currently using NBN. ...
I very much doubt that the Netgear MR7500 (M7 Ultra - Telstra) will provide greater coverage than the 4G product. WiFi signal strength is regulated by the government (FCC in US, ??? In Australia)
It might be simpler to purchase an inexpensive WiFi extender and place it where it gets a good signal from the existing router and can provide enough signal for the outdoor camera. One of the good things about WiFi extenders (from any manufacturer, including Netgear) is that they can communicate with the home WiFi system on one frequency and with a WiFi device on a different frequency.
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried a TP-Link Powerline Wifi Kit TL-WPA7510 Kit some time ago with current modem but had ongoing issues with camera loosing WiFi connection. Removed and operated okay even though showing low signal. The modem is Netgear V7610. Maybe just WiFi extender may be more suitable with the Nighthawk?
