Nighthawk M1 everyday plugged in?

Can I use the Nighthawk M1 as an everyday whole house internet? If it’s plugged in all the time would there be a fire hazard with the battery? I’m assuming when you plug in the unit, it also charges the battery? Any safety issues I should consider?

Hi @Shotgunmiss

 

If you plan to run the device 24/7, we suggest you to power the device with the PA only without inserting battery. This way, it will avoid the battery from getting hot and impacting the device's performance.

I didn't use that specific device but I had a different netgear hotspot used as 24/7 internet for a while. It worked well and was constantly powered on.

Hi, just use without a battery! But use an original cable and a charger...
