How do I connect my NETGEAR R6300 to a MiFi 4510L Mobile Hotspot?

[gjacksn]

I have just purchased the Verizon (Novatel) 4G LTE MiFi 4510L Mobile Hotspot to access the internet and I have also just purchased the Netgear R6300 WiFi Router to network my home devices together (i.e. Ethernet backup-drive, usb printer, wireless printer, xbox360 wireless, laptops wireless, DirectTV wireless, etc.). I need to connect the Netgear router to the Verizon Hotspot to provide internet access to the devices that need it. This will be a temporary setup until the fiber-optics are run through my area in a couple of months, possibly several months, by the local cable company. The R6300 is capable of being setup as Bridge, AP, repeater and some other things that I am only vaguely familiar with. I'm just not experienced enough to manipulate all the settings confidently and not worry about doing something that I can't undo. Can anyone help me understand if it can be done and then, if so, how to do it? Here is a link to the documentation for the Netgear R6300 WiFi Router: http://support.netgear.com/product/r6300 . And for the Novatel MiFi 4510L Mobile Hotspot: http://www.novatelwireless.com/content/pdf/Support/Verizon/90026384%20R1%20UG%20MiFi4510L%20VZW%20NVTL%2015Apr2011.pdf .

Thanks,

you will need to use the repeater function of the router but it will only work if the MiFi uses WEP wireless encryption.
