MR60 wirelessly connect to mobile hotspot?

I can not find setting to tether to my mobile hotspot.


Is it possible? (I have no router)

    There isn't a way over wireless. 

    Does your hotspot have an ethernet connection? 

    what hotspot is it?

        Might be able to configure AP mode on the MR then connect it to the mobile hot spots ethernet port.

    If you have the Nighthawk MESH MR60 system, the MR requires a Ethernet connection from either a Cable, DSL modem or Fiber ONT ISP service device. It doesn't support wirelessly connecting to a wireless source. 

     

    Does your hot spot have a ethernet port?

      Yes, I've been using the ethernet port for years, but no longer have wired internet and therefore can't get internet to the MR60.
