Great automatic failover router for a trailer/spaceship.
Style: 4G LTE Modem + WiFi Router
This router is a perfect solution for me. It's hard-mounted in my Airstream and, since the input is (roughly) 12v, I just have it running off of my Li-ion battery bank. No AC power adapter and associated DC-to-AC-to-DC conversion power loss. When my destination has a wifi connection, I simply connect my GL-AR750S relay to the destination wifi signal, and wire the GL-AR750S LAN out to the WAN input on the LAX20 Nighthawk. The LAX20 will prioritize the WAN signal, and if no WAN connection, it'll failover to the cell networks. Perfect solution. The failover process takes approx 60 seconds, so there is unfortunately downtime when switching. Still automatic, though! Another note: I originally bought the LAX20 for compatibility with Google Fi (uses all three Sprint, T-Mobile, and AT&T). I have since ditched Google Fi for the cheaper and better alternative US Mobile. I took a gamble and went with US Mobile's Verizon plan, which offers "Unlimited All" without data throttling. The LAX20 works with the Verizon network! I read reviews on here that said contrary, but I have first-hand experience that it does indeed work on Verizon. Just be sure to update your the LAX20 APN field to VZWINTERNET. All in all, it's a fast router and serves my needs very well. ... show more

Internet access would drop after 2 minutes but all LED indicators show good ...
Style: 4G LTE Modem + WiFi Router
This was the first of two units. Seemed to work fine initially. Used Verizon Wireless with both units. Router would work for the first 2 to 3 minutes and then no Internet traffic would pass. All LEDs would indicate everything is good. I could still access the admin web console and even there everything show connected and good. I could not ping out to anything and not a DNS issue as pinging to common public IPs e.g. 8.8.8.8 did not work either. Rebooting seemed to be the only fix but it would only last 2 to 3 minutes. Bought second unit thinking first one was just bad and right off the bat it did exactly the same thing. Returning the second one but unfortunately cannot return the first one since past the return date =( Thought going with Netgear a name brand would be better than going with an off brand. I should have known better when it comes to Netgear. ... show more

Good product - review by a not tech savvy guy.
Style: 4G LTE Modem + WiFi Router
I am not tech savvy. Here is my experience. We live rural and have few options for internet. FirstNet/ATT works well at our house. For 3 years we used a tablet as a hotspot for household internet. It was much faster than Hughes net and cheaper. However average download speeds were around 3-4 mbps, the signal quality was 90-110 dbs, and the connection was unreliable requiring moving the tablet or rebooting it daily. I tried a cheap router first but got scared off by the Chinese apps. Then tried this router. It did not work with my Sim card. I went to FirstNet and they said to call tech support for FirstNet. I stayed in the store and called them. They eventually created a new Sim card that was internet only and not whatever was in my tablet. The router worked. Being in the store worked well as they were on speaker with the staff there and could iron out technical issues beyond my skill. Its been about a month. Download speeds are 15-80 mbps. Signal strength is about -45 dbs. Reliability is much better and only requiring resetting about once a week. I have added wifi antennas. Not sure if they helped. This did not change my plan and I remain out of contract for the same price as before. Very pleased. ... show more

No Verizon? No Nighthawk app?
Style: 4G LTE Modem + WiFi Router
The important update: Yes, I have connected to Verizon 4G LTE service with this device. It works on Verizon, with a Verizon SIM card (nano size). A few quick notes, then the longer saga is below: 1) You will want the IMEI (device ID) from the box the router comes in (on a sticker with the serial number etc.). 2) Verizon would not let me use a SIM card that was already activated for another hotspot. I had to get a new SIM card from Verizon to make this work. 3) After ordering the SIM card from Verizon, I then had to contact Verizon to activate the SIM card. I needed the SIM card number (ID, or ICC ID) and the IMEI from the router. 4) Once the SIM card was properly activated, the router connected to Verizon 4G LTE with default settings, no username or password, no changes to APN or other settings. I did restart the LTE connection through the router interface; turning the router off and on again should work fine too (in order to make it retry a connection that had failed on its first try, before Verizon activated the card). 5) Until the SIM card worked, it was hard to connect to the router using the Nighthawk app or a wired connection if there was any SIM card in the router. You're better off connecting with no SIM card in the router until you have activated the SIM card you're going to use. My whole goal with this router is to have a router that automatically switches to a 4G LTE Internet connection as a backup when my main Internet connection fails. Other than that, it's just another router. The 4G LTE connection is what differentiates this router. And it works, and the setup is actually very simple. I would say 2/3 of the problem was on Verizon's side, not letting me use a Verizon SIM card I already had. I understand why Verizon does this. Easily 1/3 of the difficulty was that Netgear did not give simple instructions for how to connect to Verizon using a Verizon SIM card. Their device will do it, perfectly fine. If they had included a card with instructions, I would have saved literally hours of experimenting to figure out where the problem was. Once I set up the Verizon card right, the router just worked. More hints and tips can be found in the story below. First impression: In 5 places in the description, Amazon clearly said this was Verizon compatible, licensed with Verizon, Verizon tested, etc. But when I opened the box, a sticker on the shrink wrap clearly said this was not compatible with Verizon. (Another online store says it's not compatible with Verizon. Netgear's site says it is not compatible with Verizon, but they're working on it.) This is important for anyone considering the product. No matter what the description says, think twice if you plan to use it on Verizon. Further notes: This uses a Nano SIM card, not the next size up. The old Netgear product that I'm hoping this will replace (also on Verizon, also not officially authorized, but it works fine) used a larger SIM card. I got a SIM card trimmer from Amazon and fixed that. Most SIM cards you buy new these days will come in multiple sizes, so less of an issue. I will update the review more as I determine real-world compatibility. UPDATE 1: The Quick Start guide inside the box, face up lying on top of the router itself, gives three steps to setup: 1) Download Nighthawk app (iOS or Android), 2) Install the app (which will ask you to sign up for a Netgear account), 3) Use the app to set up the router. Here's the hitch: When you run the app, and it connects to the router, it tells you that the app does not support this router model. End of setup. Nothing further is allowed. This is a Nighthawk router, branded as such on the box. Netgear's Web page that lists router models compatible with the Nighthawk app does not list this model (LAX20) as of April 18 2021. I suspect the app will be updated, and then things will work. But this is unfortunate with a new product. The router seems cleanly designed and appears to have a lot of thought put into it. But the marketers at Netgear should not have claimed it was compatible with Verizon if it wasn't, and they should not have included that card in the box if the app hadn't been updated yet to recognize this new router model. Moving along: On the Netgear site, you can download a User Manual for the router. This offers two or three other ways to link to the router and set it up, similar to the setup routine for every other router I have ever set up. So far, it looks like no big deal. UPDATE 2: Plugged in router to wired network, and connected to it using Ethernet rather than wi-fi. Still a problem: If you put in a SIM that doesn't work, the router gets hung up on that step of setup and won't let you go to the rest of setup. So I took out the SIM I had put in, and I was able to set up the router using the instructions from the manual I downloaded from Netgear's site. A couple of things were a little flaky or confused at first, but it sorted itself out. Router works fine, as a router (wired: I haven't experimented with wi-fi yet). The router will not connect to Verizon so far, but let's be fair: Verizon may be (probably is, according to Verizon) blocking the SIM from connecting when it's plugged into a new device. This is to protect Verizon customers. Verizon is able to check to make sure the SIM is authorized (it is, and it works in its original device), but it also can check whether the IMEI (the ID number) of the new router is the one that's authorized for this account (it's not). So I have ordered a new SIM card from Verizon and activated this IMEI as a new line. I will update this further when that arrives. But: Amazon says this router is Verizon compatible. The sticker on the shrink wrap says it's not. When I go to Verizon's site and give Verizon the IMEI (on the outside of the box), Verizon says that this device will work with Verizon, and it recognizes it as the correct model number of router. So Verizon so far agrees with the Amazon marketing, not the sticker on the shrink wrap. Possibly some settings will need to be adjusted too. Can't tell till the new SIM card gets here. UPDATE 3: New SIM card arrived. Popped it in. Restarted router. No joy. Phoned Netgear. Spoke to 3 separate operators in a 75-minute phone call. None of them really seemed to understand the issue. The one who was most savvy talked fast and didn't listen much. He at least understood how networks function. The others were reading scripts. In the end, after restarting, resetting, reconnecting, when Verizon still was not connected, he said, "So there are no issues remaining, right?" or words to that effect. I'll call Verizon in the morning to make sure the SIM card is correctly activated. UPDATE 4: (see notes above. Yes, Verizon activated the SIM card correctly, and the router started working.) Now that I have set it up, I'll update this review again and add some stars, depending on how it runs in regular use. There have been some serious issues with the way the product is presented, but if it runs, it runs. By connecting to Verizon 4G LTE, it has started doing what I bought it for and what it was advertised to do. For the record, I've had other Netgear products, and I've been happy with them. (I'm using one to post this review.) I have nothing against the company. (I also have nothing against Amazon. I hate to say how many thousands of dollars a year I spend on Amazon.) So I have no axe to grind here about Netgear as a company. I'm just trying to provide useful information for anyone considering this product, or anyone who has it and is trying to make it work. ... show more

A Great Improvement
Style: 4G LTE Modem + WiFi Router
First of all, I could only give 4 stars because I was unable to confirm where this was manufactured and only items manufactured in North America are eligible for 5 stars. If I could confirm North American manufacture, it would certainly get 5 stars. I live rural and our phone lines are about two grades above barbed wire, so my DSL was just below 10 Mbps on a good day. Cable is not available and satellite has a latency issue that prevents me from being able to use it for work. Before buying, I spoke with my carrier to find out if it would work, and I got a resounding "Maybe." I also got the advice to make sure I could return it if it didn't work. Returning is not on the horizon. I inserted the SIM card I got from my carrier, powered up the router and it immediately guided me through the initial setup routine, downloaded and installed a firmware update, and I was online at about 80 Mbps. A heck of a lot better than less than 10! And since I have an unlimited, no speed reduction data plan, this is a solid solution. I did have to do some tweaks to the network settings, but that was due to personal preference rather than something I had to do for it to work. I would recommend this router with the caveat that you first talk to your carrier and make sure it is compatible. And when I say "your carrier" I mean call their support line. I initially spoke with a wireless rep at Walmart, and instead of answering my questions, she gave me a sales pitch to buy a hot-spot device from her, change my service plan and enter a contract (my contract expired nearly 10 years ago, and I've had no problems with plan changes, device upgrades, or adding lines). ... show more

I get speeds of about 50mbps I have a straight talk unlimited SIM card in it I pay 50 a month and it works fine for gaming and streaming. we use a few hundred gigs a month too speed stays the same. Only issue is it has to be reset every few days but that takes 2 minutes and it good again.

WAS very excited
Style: 4G LTE Modem + WiFi Router
Had to return waiting on funds to be returned. My husband and I bought this with really high hopes because of our internet situation and we really wanted this to work... It did for about an hour. Then it kept dropping signal. And to get signal back it would have to be restarted, again and again. Now the whole reason we went with the Netgear, a 3rd party product is because Verizon's internet devises are a joke! The jetpack 8800l exploded on us and then they tried to send us an inferior product, needless to say I didn't want to give them anymore money. We live in a very rural area with a signal repeater to boost our signal. Reading reviews we thought this product was what we needed but alas, it looks like a nice router but does not function to any standard I would except and I'm just trying to stream some TV shows... I can't imagine even trying to do anything more demanding since even that doesn't do. Maybe it would work better in a city but that's not where I'm at. Husband: from a technical Standpoint, aside from the horrible web based interface (don't even try the app) which requires internet to change settings(why!) It would seem they used a very cheep 4g modem that 100% was not designed for constant use. They of course do not advertise this. If you would like 4g backup for a hard line this router may do that ok(aside from the 5 minute start up time for the modem and the 30minute-1 hour usable time before the modem craps out) but absolutely will not work as a dedicated 4g modem. In my research I found a few modems that will work under 24/7 load like the Cisco commercial products and peplink. I would look in that direction if you need constant 4g internet. If your handy you can use the modem out of the Cisco/pepwave products and slap it into a open source router and save some money (allot of money vs Cisco) ... show more

Good 4G/LTE router as internet failover
Style: 4G LTE Modem + WiFi Router
The product is very solid and works well. Unfortunately the support and documentation is pretty bad, but that seems to be the new norm for many products out there, not only Netgear. Products made to be used in the US but with support somewhere with people that just have a list of procedures to apply and do not have a clue of the environment where the product will be running or to be used for (2 stars because they really try and are nice on the phone). This was for a client of mine that have a data SIM card from AT&T, another disastrous unknowledgeable support (0 stars here). I end up figuring out myself how to make it work. I also tested it with a T-Mobile card and works perfectly. In sum, if you know how to set it properly is a great product. That is why the 5 starts overall. ... show more
