Running nighthawk M1 off iPhone data
hi all
Is it possible to connect my iPhone directly to a Nighthawk M1 via cable or otherwise, so that I can use my unlimited mobile data for other devices, I know I can just use my iPhone as a mobile hotspot but thought it might work better connecting other devices to the Nighthawk and still be able to use my phone if needed, also wouldn't need an additional sim, thinking of using it in my Motorhome

Netgear has set up a community forum specifically for the Mobile Router products. Most of the people who watch that forum are more likely to have experience with mobile routers and know how to work it better than those of us who follow this router forum. Might be more likely to find someone who has a solution if the question is posted there:

Thank you- Thank you, not being the technical type, I guess that’s a yes 👍
Wirelessly yes. You'll need to check with Apple support on what ways Iphone products can connect to wifi router systems. I not before that older iPhones could be tethered via USB however I think that was with a PC though. I believe that if the iphone is connected to a wifi router, not sure if setting the hotspot on it is supported. Again, something to contact Apple about and see what they say.
