I couldn't find anything that says we block the Netgear Nighthawk M1 or any other mobile hotspot from working on the T-Mobile network. Of course, the normal Bring your own device (BYOD) disclaimer applies; we can't guarantee we can get all devices working, but we definitely want to try our best.
The biggest question I have is what rate plans do you have? They need to be Mobile Hotspot plans to work in a Mobile Hotspot device. If they're plans designed for phones, they won't work.

Yes, T-mobile has blocked these devices by their IMEI #s. I would like to hear an official reason as to why they're doing this. My hope is that they will expand coverage for their home ISP through 4Glte.

I have used a NightHawk MR1100 for 5 years now on T Mobile and pay for Unlimited HotSpot on the military one plan with no issues. I get speeds up to 100 Mbs at times.
