EE Nano Sim compatibility with Netgear M6 or M6 Pro routers

Hi - Does anyone know whether the EE Nano sim is compatible with the new Netgear M6 / M6 pro routers (unlocked and with sim card slot) and how best I can validate that before i spend a chunk on the router.

Alternatively, any suggestions for compatible routers?

Cheers

Hi - It takes nano sim but does it take EE nano sim. It is not listed in their documentation and I dont want to buy the router and find out that EE is not compatible.

Don't see why not!

I just tried EE nano SIM in Netgear M6 PRO, SIM fits the slot but the router is not able to connect to EE network. Called EE support but they are saying to contact Netgear support as they don't know why doesn't connect to the EE Network.

Router works absolutely fine with Giffgaff SIM.

Hi @Dan-V 

Does your EE SIM work in a different device?

Chris

Yes, it was on my iPhone 15 Pro Max fine

OK, thanks @Dan-V 

Are the APN settings correct on your router?

Chris

Yes, I have put the ones from your link but still the same.
Also toggle off and on the Domestic Data option, restarted router many times but still not able to connect, continuously searching.

OK, thanks @Dan-V 

I can only recommend speaking with our technical support team again, or speak with Netgear directly to see if they can help.
