USB tethering with a microprocessor or raspberry pi

For low power usage: Is it possible to use the Nighthawk M1 USB tethering on a Rasberry Pi running linux OR Raspbian ...or also using a small microprocessor system such as ESP32 (Which does not have an ethernet port)

Re: USB tethering with a microprocessor or raspberry pi

Are you talking about the rPi drawing power from the MR1100?

 

You'd probably be better off asking in the mobile router forum and not the general router forum.

Re: USB tethering with a microprocessor or raspberry pi

Thanks....
I am not focused on the power supply but on the ability to communicate via the USB port (serial) rather than needing an ethernet connection on a low power device. The RPI Does have ethernet, but in this case I am uncertain if Nighthawk supports linux.
I posted thequestion where you suggested.
