Nigthhawk M1100-100
Hello all,
I have purchased a Nigthhawk M1100-100 for my vacation apartment in Spain - and now set up.
2 questions I have about it:
1. on the display of the router is the access password. Does this need to be changed, because I have already entered a new password on the app?
2. my phone now has 2 connections to the Internet (mobile and WLAN via the router). If I now operate my browser, which of the two connections is active and pulls data?
With the request for assistance and best regards,
schweiwi

If you change this password, all your WiFi clients, such as your phone will be disconnected and you need to use the new password on your phone to connect to M1 WiFi again.
2. my phone now has 2 connections to the Internet (mobile and WLAN via the router). If I now operate my browser, which of the two connections is active and pulls data?[John] This is standard. If the phone has a WiFi connection, it will pull the data from M1 and will not use mobile data.

Understood as far as it goes, thank you.
But I have one more question:
I bought a SIM with a term of 90 days, but the router counts only monthly with 31 days.
How can I change to 90 days?Best regards,
