What is the highest wattage I can use for charging my Netgear M1 hot spot?

It is an mr1100 ATT model

 

I have an aftermarket Anker 18 watt but the device reboots sometimes

 

Can I up the wattage for a chargeR?

    Yes. You can use the battery when plugged in. The device will reduce the charging voltage when detected the device is plugged in 7/24 in order to protect the battery. So when you see the battery is not fully charged after certain period of time, it is normal.

     

    Thanks

    Would you like to help us to check whether your device crashed during the normal use instead of resetting due to low power supply?

     

    How oftne the issue happens?

     

    Thanks

      I am using the Nighthawk Mr1100 without battery sometimes plugged in.

       

      I have an upgraded Anker 18 watt quallcom 3.0 charging block but the Nighthawk still reboots sometimes

       

      Is there anything I can do?
