Re: [AFMUG] Verizon hotspot - for access to towersite?
You can use LTE SXTs outside with a SIM in them. That works quite well and gets service where normal cells can’t. Then its just a port on your router.

Yes, you are right. I had to go look back at the original bill. The 500 bucks is a one time setup fee for however many statics ip's you require for your various byod, like cradlepoints or Verizon's devices. There is no recurring charges for ip's thereafter.

Yes, you are right. I had to go look back at the original bill. The 500 bucks
is a one time setup fee for however many statics ip's you require for your
various byod, like cradlepoints or Verizon's devices. There is no recurring
charges for ip's thereafter.
Also you could use a VPN and port forward to get around no static ip issue. If

Tim,
All I have found for an option through Verizon was a 500 dollar one time setup
charge through their business sales team to setup the static and then a monthly
charge of around 50$.
ATT has a new business plan for 55$ a month comes with a static and 3mbps
download “unlimited”.
How did you go about getting the 4$ static from Verizon? Was it a business
account or a personal?
Thanks,
Brandon

I haven't had a problem with getting SIM cards from VZ for devices. I
usually just take whatever it is to a store and say "I need a SIM for
this thing". They mull around a bit longer than if you brought them a
phone but that's about it.

That would work. I was hoping to have it listening so we could simply VPN in from a laptop in the field to the router at the tower.

[AFMUG] Verizon hotspot - for access to towersite?
So those of you using Verizon hotspot type connections as a secondary connection point for your towers. What is it called? Is it a static IP that you can just VPN into? We are looking for a simple solution to VPN into a tower site if the backhauls ( or something else drops off line). Just wondering what it is I want to ask Verizon for when I call up to place the order. What are you all using? Does it have a static and Ethernet port to plug into our router?
