<div dir="ltr">Hi Mark,<div><br></div><div>We've had some success stories with small to medium companies using TP-Link MR200. They retail at less than $200, are extremely easy to setup and covers your basic requirements.

I have a nice list of options to try out.<br>
<br>
Below is a summary of the options I have been given. Some options I<br>
have excluded due to no ethernet port or direct SIM etc. Some more<br>
expensive options than I planned in there but that's ok in this<br>
context.<br>
<br>
Would specifically like to hear from anybody using the Teltonika<br>
RUT950 as that appears to fit perfectly. I think I will have that and<br>
one of integrated Routerboard's tested.<br>
