RouterOS Beginner Basics

From what I read so far, it will need router that has usb like below
http://routerboard.com/RB751U-2HnD

Is microtik has product that has integrated router + 3G Sim card?
That way, it will be easier to do my requirement.

If there is no integrated product, could you suggest to me which specific model 3G USB from huawei that will work without problem with RB751U-2HnD

thanks in advance

Without knowing what cellular network you require support for, it is not possible to make a recommendation on USB stick that will work.

I have successfully used the RB411U http://routerboard.com/RB411U (also http://routerboard.com/RB411UAHR will work) with a mini-PCIe 3G modem. The sim card slot is present on these RouterBOARDs. See here for tested hardware http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Supported_Hardware#3G_cards look for devices with a mini-PCIe format.

Good tips. Just realized i can use RB411U in the enclosure
It is for 3G GSM network in Indonesia

I just need a very simple function any sms in will be forwarded to email. Is it easy to copy paste the script that already do sms to email into the router?

Also, which enclosure do you bought with your RB411U?

I did not use an enclosure, it was only a test setup. The new enclosure that will work is the CA411-711 http://routerboard.com/CA411-711, or you can still find the original CA411U enclosure http://routerboard.com/CA411U for sale by doing a web or ebay search.

As for cards or USB devices, follow the link I provided for tested hardware. I have always been partial to any Sierra Wireless product and they have the greatest compatibility with RouterBOARD products and RouterOS.
