Getting comfortable
Hey guys. I need to buy an LTE Modem and Router to install at our cabin.
I'd like to buy a modem that runs on Verizon network and use it to turn lights, home automation, water supply, etc. on and off remotely. I plan to run a computer there and use this network connection to log into the computer remotely with Teamviewer for a few things. But for the most part the data consumption will be under 1gb a month. I can get Verizon prepaid plan for $17.50 a month for 1gb. I want an unlocked device and no month to month plan. Just prepaid.
I already brought a Verizon mifi jetpack hotspot device and the cell reception was very good. The connection was pretty fast. But the jetpack device uses wifi and the device has terrible wifi range I dont want the complexity of wifi. I want at least 1 ethernet connection for critical items.
So what do you recommend that a person like me can figure out?
1. This is expensive but looks like the real deal an comes with good external antennas. Would this work? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M7RG1VN/ref=asc_df_B01M7RG1VN5376209?tag=cnet-pc-20&smid=A1L4LS2KNDBWYV&linkCode=df0&creative=395105&creativeASIN=B01M7RG1VN&ascsubtag=e802ab60-15f5-11e8-867a-475a92fa835f
2. Cheaper route but not so good reviews, need to get external antenna for it: https://www.amazon.com/NETGEAR-LB2120-100NAS-Modem-Gigabit-Ethernet/dp/B01MQRHQYT/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1519101891&sr=8-3&keywords=lte+modem
3. This one? https://www.amazon.com/Huawei-B310-518-Unlocked-Mobile-Caribbean/dp/B076BXKFT2/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1519101891&sr=8-5&keywords=lte+modem&dpID=31R0yOm2C9L&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch
4. Very little info on this one: https://www.amazon.com/KuWFi-Wireless-External-Extender-4pcs5dbi/dp/B01FVJIWCW/ref=pd_sbs_107_20?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B01FVJIWCW&pd_rd_r=AHJ0XQZVQZVCEMM303QA&pd_rd_w=mlSYY&pd_rd_wg=iS84V&psc=1&refRID=AHJ0XQZVQZVCEMM303QA
5. $634 yikes https://www.amazon.com/CradlePoint-COR-IBR600LE-VZ-Router-Verizon/dp/B00BCLCSJW
6. Cheapest solution, travel router with USB port to plug in a Verizon USB LTe dongle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00634PLTW/ref=psdc_300189_t1_B01FV7ZUCO
7. This looks promising but not sure it wroks for USA market according to reviews: https://www.amazon.com/TP-Link-WLAN-750mb-MR200-ARCHER/dp/B014VB4N4M/ref=pd_sbs_107_15?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B014VB4N4M&pd_rd_r=AHJ0XQZVQZVCEMM303QA&pd_rd_w=mlSYY&pd_rd_wg=iS84V&psc=1&refRID=AHJ0XQZVQZVCEMM303QA
