This thing would randomly reboot quite a bit. At first I thought it was due to the 5 GHz band being used so I only left the 2.4 band on, but still encountered random reboots. Apparently many users experienced the same issue after reading through reviews for this device.

There are some better options out there. I just got a used/good M6 MR6150 for $190 yesterday. Unlocked, wifi6, 5G, x62 chip, 32 clients, etc etc.
The MR6500, ATT version, can easily be unlocked for $10-20, and is even better than the MR6150 after that. WIfi 6E, x65 snap chip, 2.5GB LAN and 8GB theoretical top. And can be had used for $150+ or looks like they can be had new occasionally on ebay for $2-300. Had I known about the $10 unlock service and that the bands were just disabled, I would have bought the MR6500 instead. I thought they were like old school cell phones with actually different specs.
There are some others out there that can be had cheap. Just wanted the Nighthawk.

can you do a TTL hack on this so that you can use mobile data instead of hotspot data? if not, get something like the cat16 or cheetah v1

I don't know about TTL but I have this and use it with a AT&T phone service sim card. I just changed the APN to NXTGENPHONE and voilà.

Does this mean that after unlock, all bands will be enabled?

Looking to use with the T-Mobile data sim card.
Looking to replace an M2000.

Depends on where you live, some places 5G barely works or has spotty coverage. My wife and I have very similar phones but hers is 4G and mine is 5G. Unless we are in city she always has better data. And if we are in a large building, the same. (Not sure if 5G has trouble with penetrating barriers or what). In Europe and South American I can go hours without the ability to even get a text message.

If I were buying a hotspot for using while traveling, especially rural usage I would go with 4G without a second thought.

There are different frequencies used for 5g depending on carrier and location. Generally lower frequencies penetrate walls and other obstructions better but have a lower throughput.

I was unaware of that, I assumed 5G would be 5G anywhere (same narrow part of the spectrum) however after a little research into your comment the range is huge, 450 MHz to 6 GHz it looks like.

2.4GHz vs 5gz wifi is a testament to that!

there's a hack to change IMEI using DCunlocker to that of a phone and use an unlimited data plan. Also higher priority data.

The frequencies that cell providers use are also licensed by the FCC so everything is very regimented. This was a big benefit of the Sprint / T-Mobile merger. Sprint had a lot of 600mhz spectrum (IIRC) and allowed Tmobile to rapidly expand their footprint using their now available spectrum. When you see a lot of the mini cell sites that are on poles in densely populated metro areas those are typically higher frequencies that don't go as far and are very helpful for giving coverage in the neighborhood or arena etc. The really high speeds come from the high frequencies but the reach and building penetration isn't easy.

This is also why later model phones seem to work much better ie later model iPhone vs a 4g iPhone 11. The older phones don't have the physical capability to use the frequency bands. I upgraded from a iPhone 6 to a 6s many years ago because I think it added the long reaching band 12 or 71.
