This is a general question,

Any RouterBOARD hardware have the 4g LTE simcard port include (no thru USB)?

Sim cards specifically designed for 4G/LTE don't exist so I don't think you'll find any device with such a slot. You are better off looking for devices with SIM slots (drop the specific 4G/LTE part). You do have 4G/LTE modems out there that fit into mini-PCI-e slots on devices like the RB912UAG-2HPnD. These devices do have a SIM card slot on the board (important as I haven't encountered a mini-PCI-e modem with a SIM card slot). You can then buy a mini-PCI-e modem card that best fits your needs.

Yes, we have many such products.

This one has SIM slot for 4G modem: http://routerboard.com/RB912UAG-2HPnD

all you need is the miniPCI-e 4G modem.

lenart - you are not correct. 4G LTE does have SIM cards

I was not suggesting that 4G/LTE does not require a simcard, I am disputing the suggestion that there are simcards that are specifically made for 4G/LTE. A simcard that you got before 4G/LTE was invented will work perfectly fine in a device that supports 4G.

As such, I recommended the exact same routerboard for the exact same reason, the device has a SIM card slot.

But I can see how my comment is unclear so I've edited it in an attempt to make it less confusing.

Yes, in this case your comment is fine. Any RouterBOARD device with a SIM Slot will work perfectly with 4G modems as well

Can I use a 4G MiniPCIe modem with this router:

RB912UAG + Huawei ME909u-521

Where is the SIM slot?

What is the difference between European and American in 4G modems?

Where is the SIM slot?
On the board just above the mPCIe slot.
RB912UAG + Huawei ME909u-521
The Huawei ME909u-521 has been used by others and appears to work...
What is the difference between European and American in 4G modems?
Frequency bands. You'll need to check to make sure the modem supports the 4G bands used in your country.

all you need is the miniPCI-e 4G modem.
you have a pretty neat 3g/4g modem bundled in wap lte kit. as far as i could figure it out it has the following part #: R11e-LTE
will this item be available for sale separately? i am looking desperately for a reliable & well supported (and affordable) modem for the existing installations.
as far my math goes, the price would be the difference between wAP R and wAP LTE kit (119$-79$ = 40$).

is this just a far fetched theory, or it may be reality?
