<br>
I was wondering what people are using for LTE terminations these days.<br>
<br>
Use case is simply a reliable interface for customer end site backup<br>
links/internet traffic etc.<br>
<br>
At present I have been suggesting using Cradlepoint IBR series hooked<br>
into either Juniper or Cisco gear as they have been pretty reliable<br>
for me.<br>
<br>
Ideally:<br>
<br>
* Something in the $200-300 range.<br>
<br>
* Presents an ethernet port.<br>
<br>
* Takes a SIM directly.<br>
<br>
* Has external antenna's.<br>
<br>
* Optionally supports some variation of IP pass thru, VPN, or GRE.<br>
<br>
The pain point in the past is the various consumer dongles either<br>
dying or requiring me to script something to reboot them when they<br>
drop.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
Mark<br>
