NETGEAR, market leader in network products for large and small businesses and (home) offices, announces two new mobile products. The Nighthawk® 4G LTE WiFi 6 Router (LAX20), the first wireless mobile router equipped with the latest WiFi 6 technology, and the NETGEAR® 4G LTE Modem (LM1200). The two mobile wireless products provide households and businesses with internet connectivity anywhere, as well as the ability to connect home or office networks without traditional cable, DSL, or fiber broadband options.
The Nighthawk LAX20 features advanced WiFi 6 network technology, offering 1.8Gbps of WiFi and more network capacity to support a larger number of connected devices on the home network. Combined with a 4G LTE modem, for locations where traditional wired network connections are not available or reliable, the Nighthawk LAX20 router provides an alternative mobile internet connection. The new router also serves as an ideal solution for users who need internet access for a limited time, such as in vacation homes or short-term rentals.
The 4G LTE wireless capability is also designed for users who need a consistent high-speed connection when wired broadband is not available, not fast enough, or intermittent. With a significant increase in remote workers, online education, and recreational (video) streaming, a consistent and reliable internet connection is of great importance. The Nighthawk LAX20 is certified for major mobile providers, such as T-Mobile, and therefore provides a solution when there is a network outage by switching directly to LTE. The new router is also equipped with NETGEAR Armor, which protects all connected devices linked to the (home) network from cyber threats, making it a suitable solution for families and business users.
The NETGEAR LM1200 modem is an affordable and reliable internet connection via the 4G LTE network for users who (regularly) experience slow internet (DSL) or do not have a fixed broadband service. NETGEAR's latest 4G LTE modem is certified to work with T-Mobile, among others. The LM1200 easily establishes a powerful and reliable internet connection via a 4G SIM card and can also be connected to a WiFi router or Mesh system for internet access throughout the home.
The Nighthawk M5 5G mobile router, recognized as a CES 2020 Innovation Award Honoree, is now available worldwide. The Nighthawk M5 is designed to provide higher internet speeds with low latency via the WiFi 6 network and 5G wireless connectivity. The router is easy to use on the go or during vacations. Additionally, the Nighthawk M5 provides multiple devices with reliable internet connectivity for the whole family and also allows for simultaneous HD video streaming or online gaming. The mobile router is suitable for business users due to its secure and reliable connection.
The Nighthawk M5 mobile router is an ideal solution for people who work or study remotely. Additionally, the router can serve as an alternative to home internet, thanks to the gigabit Ethernet port and external antenna ports that can improve signal reception for home users. With the ability to connect the Nighthawk M5 to an existing home router via the 1Gbps Ethernet port, the mobile router brings 5G speeds into a home network and can also be used as a fail-over option for uninterrupted internet. The router is equipped with a durable lithium-ion battery, providing power for up to 13 hours and can be removed when used in a fixed location, such as at home or in the office.
