Frequently asked questions

What does the warranty cover?

Our warranty covers all hardware faults, but please note it doesn’t cover accidental damage or software issues. However, we’re here to help with technical support for those matters!

What is a refurbished device?

A refurbished device is a pre-owned item that has been restored to meet high-quality standards. At Reboot IT, we adhere to strict quality guidelines, ensuring that our refurbished products are not the same as used or secondhand items. We meticulously clean, test, and assess each device, replacing worn parts with high-quality components.

Unlike used items, which lack guarantees and rely solely on the seller's word regarding condition, refurbished devices come with assurance of quality and reliability.

Description

Netgear Nighthawk M2 MR2100 — LTE Cat20 2 Gbps Mobile Router

The Netgear Nighthawk M2 (MR2100) is a flagship LTE Cat20 mobile router powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon X24 modem, delivering theoretical download speeds up to 2 Gbps through 7-band carrier aggregation, 4×4 MIMO, and LAA support. It connects up to 20 WiFi devices via dual-band 802.11ac, includes a Gigabit Ethernet port, a 5040 mAh removable battery with JumpBoost charging, and a 2.4-inch colour touchscreen. This unit ships with a 12-month Reboot IT warranty and qualifies for free standard AU shipping.

Key Benefits

  • LTE Cat20 — up to 2 Gbps: Qualcomm Snapdragon X24 modem with 7-band carrier aggregation and LAA (Licensed Assisted Access) delivers the fastest LTE speeds available in a portable router.
  • Dual-band 802.11ac for 20 devices: Simultaneous 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz WiFi supports up to 20 concurrent connections — sufficient for full team or family use at a temporary location.
  • Gigabit Ethernet port: Wired connectivity for a single device at full Gigabit speed, or WAN input for travel router mode (converts hotel wired Ethernet into private WiFi).
  • 5040 mAh battery + JumpBoost: Up to 16 hours portable operation; JumpBoost function charges smartphones and tablets via USB — doubles as a power bank when needed.
  • 1TB microSD media server: Insert a microSD card and share files, stream media, and serve NAS storage to all connected WiFi devices without a cloud subscription.
  • 12-month Reboot IT warranty + free standard AU shipping: Lightweight at 240g — ships free to any Australian address.

Performance in Use

The Nighthawk M2 sits at the top of Netgear's portable router line. Its Cat20 modem with LAA support aggregates both licensed LTE spectrum and unlicensed 5 GHz WiFi spectrum (using 802.11ac as an additional downlink channel) — a technique that can push real-world speeds well beyond standard Cat16 in areas where LAA cells are deployed. On standard Telstra and Optus Cat20 networks, sustained download speeds of 200–600 Mbps are achievable in strong signal conditions — enough to simultaneously stream 4K video, run video conferences, and support a team of users.

The Gigabit Ethernet port is a meaningful differentiator over WiFi-only portable routers. Connecting a wired laptop or workstation avoids WiFi overhead and delivers lower latency — useful for latency-sensitive applications like VoIP, gaming, or remote desktop. In travel router mode, the same port accepts a wired LAN connection from a hotel or venue network and broadcasts it as a private password-protected WiFi hotspot, protecting all your devices from shared-network exposure.

The 5040 mAh battery provides up to 16 hours of operation on a charge — sufficient for a full working day without access to a power outlet. JumpBoost allows the M2 to charge a connected smartphone via the USB-A port while still running as a hotspot. The 2.4-inch colour touchscreen gives quick access to signal strength, data usage, and connected device lists without opening the web interface. No adapter is included — the M2 charges via USB-C.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a power adapter come included?

No adapter is included. The Nighthawk M2 charges via USB-C — any USB-C charger (5V/3A or higher) charges the unit. The removable 5040 mAh battery can also be charged externally with a compatible cradle charger (sold separately).

Which Australian carriers are supported?

The MR2100 supports a wide range of LTE bands used in Australia including Bands 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 28, and 40, covering Telstra, Optus, and Vodafone. Confirm band compatibility with your specific SIM provider. A nano-SIM is required (not included).

What is LAA and does it help in Australia?

LAA (Licensed Assisted Access) uses 5 GHz unlicensed WiFi spectrum as an additional LTE downlink channel. Telstra has deployed LAA in select CBD and high-traffic locations — where available, LAA can push real-world speeds beyond what standard carrier aggregation alone achieves.

Can I connect a wired device via Ethernet?

Yes. The Gigabit Ethernet port operates as LAN mode (connect a wired device to the router) or WAN mode (travel router — router connects to an existing wired internet source). One mode at a time is supported.

What shipping options are available?

This item qualifies for free standard AU shipping — lightweight at 240g. Estimated delivery 3–7 business days.

What does the 12-month warranty cover?

Reboot IT's 12-month warranty covers hardware defects and functional failures. Physical damage caused after delivery is excluded. Contact our Melbourne support team for warranty claims.
