Is anyone else wondering if this can be used as an LTE failover for their other products?
This could be another revenue addon for MSPs providing internet failover for small businesses that can’t afford full-time backup internet.
The subscription costs are TERRIBLE and EXPENSIVE! “Pre-installed AT&T nano SIM (locked). Subscription plans are $15/month for 1 GB, $30/month for 5 GB, or $70/month for 20 GB of data plus $15 for each additional GB.”
I kept running out of data on my U-LTE, $75 for 5 GB of data. Just bought a Netgear Nighthawk M6 Pro, connected it to my AT&T account, and pay $22 for 50 Gb. Connected in Passthrough mode to a USG3, as a failover WAN. Works flawlessly.
If it is SIM-locked to AT&T, it will suck! should be SIM unlocked.
