I have another Beginner-Question:
First, let me introduce myself: My Name is Gerd, located in Northern Germany.
My Network Configurataion is:
DSL Router (FritzBox 7490) —> RB2011UiAS-2HnD —> 2 RPI3 and a Win Client.
1 Pi runs “Pi-Hole”
1 Pi runs nginx, SEARX, fail2ban, unrealircd, prosody XMPP Server.
Pis are accesable from WAN trough a dyndns account.
Here comes my Question:
If for example I am traveling with my motorhome or I am in a hotel or holidays:
Is it possible to connect my (or another smaller Routerboard) to a WiFi-Network.
Hotel/Camping-WLAN → Routerboard → RPI → Smartphone / Win-/Linux Notebook.
Otherwise: Could I use a LTE Product like SXT LTE kit (Motorhome)in the following way:
SXT LTE kit —> Routerboard —> RPI —> Smartphone / Win-/Linux Notebook.
For the Hotel / Camping WLAN, depends on how they set it up, but I would think 99% of the time it will work. i.e. when it will not work is if they change the ttl to 1, then your routerboard will work, but nothing behandit it.
The SXT LTE will be an excellent choice for the motorhome if there is cell LTE coverage, just make sure it does support the Bands in your country, i.e. here in South Africa, the only Band I can use is 3 and only one service provider that supports that Band is Telkom, also that Band is very congested here so not the best performance. Have one installed at a client of mine in industrial area and he gets a stable 20Mb down and up.
Can’t use Band 7 at all here
Should you get the SXT LTE, there is also an additional adapter that you can buy that can swivel, so will make easier to get better line of site as you move around and needs to re-align
thank you for your help. I just figured out that I also coud connect a LTE-Modem to my Routerboard. I will try this out or get the SXT LTE. Thank you again.
