Using R7000 with mobile hotspot for internet
Hello, I have 2 Netgear R7000 wireless routers. My only source of internet is mobile hotspot data. I want to make a network and feed it internet from the 4G mobile phone hotspot. Various computers...
Hi, thanks for the reply, using a Note9 phone.
Oh, how painful, just got off the phone with netgear technical support. They said I need a modem. Why cannot the R7000 be configured to accept internet from a mobile hotspot from my Note 9 phone?
It sounded like there were other people doing this or something similar from these forums.
This video shows a person doing it with a TP Link router...is that somehow different or superior to the netgear R7000? Watch "How to Share & Connect 3G / 4G Mobile Hotspot To WiFi Router Tutorial" on YouTube

I have two of the R7000 routers, so can one of them tie into the mobile hot spot on the note 9 phone and the other router be the network router to connect other computers, printers, etc?
Thanks!
