Cradlepoint IBR 600NM

My 2019 Fleetwood Bounder came with a cradlepoint ibr 600 nm, it was suppose to be a wifi extender as part of a factory technology pkg. (the dealer installed a wifi ranger at no charge due to the poor description from Fleetwood on this package) However, I still have this installed cradlepoint device and no idea what if anything it can do to benefit me. The cradlepoint website shows this model as discontinued, it does not have a built in modem hence the"NM" designation on the part number. Devices with built in modems can use a SIM card with a data plan. I already have Verizon and AT&T unlimited plans with MiFi devices. The literature I can find online doesn't really say much about the use of this cradlepoint device, lots of instruction if it's one with a built in modem which mine does not have. Any thoughts as to what I can use this device for in the RV? My technology knowledge and capability is a 4 or 5 on a 10 scale, so advanced terminology won't help me much. Thanks.

No need to use or keep the Cradlepoint, it's redundant with the WiFi Ranger. Just connect all of your onboard devices to the WFR (which should be the case already).

Additional routers between the data sources and destinations just add complexity and latency (slows down response).
