using Netgear and nighthawk with Verizon Wireless internet.
We just got Verizon Wireless internet (have not cut the cable cord yet but its off). We have the netgear box and then also the nighthawk extender in another part of the house. How do we connect this ...
I have recently setup several fixed wireless (Cell) gateways from Verizon and from T-mobile. All were connected through 4GLTE cell service. The gateway was a router and provided both Wi-FI with 2.4 and 5 GHz bands and Ethernet outputs. Simply a desktop box with a power cord and SIM card.
The end users were positively thrilled. Their previous internet access was via DSL phone line.
Interesting. So my question wasn't mad. I've seen some weird stuff discussed over in the mobile hot spot zone.
"Cellular internet" does seem to be catching on. Here in the UK one of the ISPs, BT, is offering "cellnet" as a backup so that people can stay on line when their main line goes down.
I can see that causing all manner of trouble when people try to make this stuff work with their old routers.

Not mad at all. If the user buys two cell phone lines per month, they can plus up with the internet service for an additional $30 US. No contract and no data cap. Service averages 100/10 Mbps from a 4G LTE tower.
