Hi.iam a newbie to this.i have a 4g mobile sim.and smart internet tv. can i put sim in router wired ethernet from router to tv.will it work? Ty

Your SIM card will usually come in a credit card punch out. When you have removed the LARGE (1stGen size) SIM, insert this into the router. Use the large SIM - do not try to punch out the two smaller sizes. The router can be connected by ethernet cable or WiFi to a smart TV or any other device. Used in the EU very successfully to watch TV over mobile connection on 4G with no problems. NB Some mobile operators require you to manually configure the 4G connection. Not difficult, but you will have Google the instructions.

Will this work with Vodafone Malta Frequencies?

Yep, should be compatible with EMEA region. (Europe, Middle East & Africa)

Hi! dose it work on o2 network? and dose it any settings on vpn?

My subscription for the card in the router runs on the GiffGaff network, which, in turn, runs on the O2 network - therefore I would assume that an O2 network SIM should also work.

Can normal WiFi cameras be used with this?

Depends on what SIM card your using we have an o2 unlimited data and it works fine. We have had no issues at all
