USB WiFi adapter and M1 MR1100

Will M1 MR1100 benefit from a USB WiFi adapter? Would it even work? From asking this question you can probably tell im clueless when it comes to this stuff.

    It might help if you said what you want to do.

     

    The MR1100 is a mobile modem/hotspot that connects you to the Internet.

     

    A USB WiFi adapter plugs into a PC and lets it connect to the wifi from your router.

     

    They are completely different devices.  The USB adapter plugs into your PC and lets it connect to the wifi from the mobile modem/hotspot.
