Wire free with mobile router?

I don't know the model number but when I went to add a device today, I saw something called a wire free with mobile router on the list of devices to add. I can't find any info in this thing anywhere including Google and Arlos website. What is it?

Took me 8 frys to post because it wasn't a product with a model number or a tag and some other stupid message category. Where's the definition of what those are? Arlo, why keep inventing products when you can't even get geofencing right?

MyIQArLo,

This is referencing the NETGEAR Nighthawk® M1, take a look here for more information: Nighthawk® M1 Mobile Router

Thank you but Im really untech savvy. I read the page but I am not sure what it does. Its a router but what does it mean mobile? and battery life? My problem is that i have too many devices and interference on my router now. Id like to get something that will provide better coverage and less interference. Is this what i want or is the orbi with docsomething 3.1 modem a better choice?

MyIQArLo,

The Nighthawk M1 is a mobile data device that will (in the future) support Arlo cameras, it would not benefit your existing home network. Orbi would likely be the better solution to expanding your existing home network.
