Nighthawk M1 - supplying external device via USB?

Hi,

 

I wonder if it would be possible to attach an external device to the M1 by USB for power and Ethernet for connectivity, and let the M1 then power this device from its internal battery while still being able to supply other devices with WiFi connectivity. I am using such a setup with a Huawei device, but in case the M1 comes to Germany and it supports this setup I would like to change ASAP 🙂

Ralph.

So it appears that all other funcionality keeps untouched, just additionally the external device gets powered? This exactly is what I am looking for, thanks a lot 🙂

Ralph.
