LINOVISION Industrial 4G LTE Cat4 Cellular Router with Wi-Fi, Enhanced Signal for Remote Sites, Dual SIM Slots, DTU Gateway for RS485 devcie, IoT Sensors, Solar Power Cameras, M2M, Vehicles

Great little router. I use Ting Mobile to power these so that I can skip months and pay as I go. Beats paying 5x the money for a Cradlepoint. Get it, they work!

TL; DR - The user manual is superficial and poorly written. Support is lacking. Setting this router up is an exercise in futility. I am effectively able to use this router as a a cellular modem (ie., able to connect to the internet while connected to the modem via eth or wifi) but there is some sort of firewall in place that prohibits me from accessing the router/network remotely. The only way I was able to overcome that obstacle was to set up a VPN (in which case I was able to access the router remotely) but even then, I was unable to access devices connected to the network. I program for a living and have tried all obvious and many not-so-obvious solutions but nothing worked. It's built on a nix platform so I could jailbreak it and make it do what I want it to do but that's not what I paid for and I do not want to do that.

Chose these because others are moving to cloud admin only. This thing just works. Was leery at first because of the price point but it has been online since it was delivered and has not had a hiccup yet. I plan to by several more based on the performance of this initial purchase.

This is a neat little wifi router, still have not gotten it to work, but that is because of the carriers and not the router. That is something that you need to know before you buy this though. This router tells the carrier that it is a router and not a phone so many companies will cut your service of throttle you or, in my case only allow you to use their hotspot data. Quite frankly it is not the carriers business what I am using. This is not Linovisions fault, but you should be aware. They had good customer service. Update.... There are no inexpensive service providers for this router that i can find. For unlimited internet you are in the 80 to 100 dollar range per month. Better off using T mobile service with a T mobile router. Wish I had not bought this. Linovision should state this in the sales ad.

Hard wired this unit into the 12 V system on my 5th Wheel. Works great keeping tabs on things via a Victron Cerbo GX (solar, batteries, temps). Very pleased.

First, I could not get this device to work, and that's likely because this is more of a commercial device designed for business use rather than a friendly consumer product. Based on my email exchanges with Tech Support, the reason I was having problems is that it's apparently designed for a phone SIM and I had a data only SIM. They claimed I could make it work by contacting Verizon and perform some operation that they did not clearly specify. I'm not a cell engineer and while I had an inkling on what they wanted me to do, I was not in the mood to play around with it. I will say that their tech support responded to each query quickly, and the device itself seems to be quite sturdy. It also seems to be designed for making vending and other devices into IOT devices. That's great, and I'm betting there's a lot of business people who will like it, but I simply wanted a better hotspot than the little hockey puck I currently use.

This product is awesome, allows me to set up remote Ethernet connections with security. Even allows for WiFi connection which can be turned off. It has dual port device meaning it can have two cellular providers, a backup.

I purchased 2 of these; the first one had a defective SIM socket. The card would slide into the socket with almost no friction, so if the router was tilted or bumped in almost any direction the SIM card would slide out of place. Router #1 returned. The second one had a good SIM socket, however the IMEI was locked. I attempted to use AT&T, T-Mobile, and Mint SIM cards. In all cases, the correct APN settings were used, however in all cases" registration denied" is shown as the cellular status. All of these SIM cards work fine in my other devices. On further research, it appears that the IMEI associated with this router is locked. Without knowing the carrier, it is challenging to unlock. Certainly not worth my time. Router #2 returned. I sent Linovision an email and attempted a "chat" for support on their website; the chat said "sorry we missed you" and after about 6 days I have not yet received a reply to the email. So, no help from the manufacturer. Thank goodness Amazon returns are easy. After receiving 2 defective routers and no tech support, this router earns 1 star from me.

Unfortunately for us - the unit didn't live up to expecations, the VPN capabilities were extremely lacking, as such we returned the unit.

same as describe
