Nighthawk M1 Mobile Router Charging

I was wondering if I could leave my Nighthawk M1 Mobile Router - (Model Number:MR1100) - on charge all the time without it being damaged?

Re: Nighthawk M1 Mobile Router Charging

Probably not a good idea as far as battery lifespan is concerned. See this article. If you're using your M1 in a fixed location for 24/7 internet access, it may be better to remove the battery and power it solely on a mains charger. However, the 2A charger that has been supplied up to now by Netgear is fine for charging the battery but isn't powerful enough to run the M1 reliably - it tends to reboot frequently. Please see this post I wrote in answer to a similar question.
