Thanks for the reminder/suggestion ... for now it's enough to get it |
| 27 |
working in the mentioned way as that stick is here for some weeks |
| 28 |
only. It's only a a "test drive" and I have to return it if I don't |
| 29 |
decide to do sign a contract (which is pretty expensive ...). I |
| 30 |
research if we have good enough LTE-coverage at a customer's numerous |
| 31 |
sites as we consider to back up their insufficient internet |
| 32 |
connectivity somehow. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
I would have to get it running with some router-distro like ipfire or |
| 35 |
pfsense to be able to use it ... -> some more work ahead ;-) |

Thanks, Stefan |
