Carl,
Thank you. That should do it. We already have a
system that hooks to a wireless bridge to
transverse a 200' distance from one building to
another. The unit below is what we used.

The only difference is that the previous system
connected to a DSL modem/router instead of a HotSpot.
Best,
Drake

Drake,
We installed a similar system several years
back. The client had a Verizon MiFi Internet
connection device. We installed a wireless
Ethernet bridge which was equipped with
RJ-45 ports. Configured the ethernet bridge to
connect to the MiFi unit. Plugged the envoy
into the wireless ethernet Bridge and voilĂ .
This client travels with the MiFi device at
times and so the enlighten sends a message
saying the envoy failed to report. Once
the MiFi unit is back in the residence the
envoy reconnect's and uploads data no problems.
Similarly another client purchased a device from
cricket mobile similar to the MiFi unit and the
same connection strategy applied data plan for
the cricket unit was approximately $15 a month.
Cheers

Hello Wrenches,
We are attempting to connect an Envoy to an ATT
wireless Internet system. Since the system
provides no RJ 45 ports, we need some other
device to bridge the wireless connection to the web.
Enphase recommended a Cradle Point router, which
might have some issues, as the site is limited
access. It will be tuned on and off with a
power strip switch. I called the 3G Store, and
they recommended a "Pepwave Surf
Mini."

From the description, it sounds like it would work.
Has anyone connected a system like this to the
Internet? What equipment would you
recommend? Also, if for some reason this is not
possible, please let me know that.
Thank you,
Drake
