An SXT LTE Cat 6 and another Mikrotik to provide wifi, probably a RB951ui-2HnD. The SIM is a second sim to the phone sim.A couple of other questions which pop up:
- From SIM to Wifi - what's in between ? Your cell phone ?
It's not connected to the work LAN but I work for the telco so they can potentially view the traffic. I'm not even sure they do- issues at work after clicking a dodgy link - how so ? Is your device permanently connected to your work environment ? Scared to have your device infected with some malware ? Then DON'T share your cell wifi ... easy, no ?
That makes sense and is what I did with NordVPN. One SSID for nord and one for straight through traffic- hide your traffic - why hide your traffic ? Why not hide your friends traffic ? Would be more logical.
There's no expenses. The towers cost the same if they sit idle as opposed to passing a small amount of extra traffic. The only costs are fake internal costs which are flat.Being someone who is responsible for monitoring mobile expenses for the client I work for, I personally think your request is more then simply crossing a line.
Where I live you can get fired for doing this (but it's not easy to proof, I will admit that).
But let's not judge ... or I must have HUGELY misunderstood what you are planning to do, in which case I humbly apologize for jumping to conclusions.
Yeah I was a bit light on the details there. It's just a Mikrotik SXT LTE6 and another mikrotik for wifi. All basic setup, DHCP, an SSID for me and one for the encrypted traffic.The SXT will be pretty much default config with some sort of VPN link out. The other device will just run wifi and a static IPAs holveo notes, you have given us a very poor explanation of the equipment and how the traffic actually flows.
At the end someone ALWAYS has to pay the bill.There's no expenses. The towers cost the same if they sit idle as opposed to passing a small amount of extra traffic. The only costs are fake internal costs which are flat.
I can also do the VPN on the SXT but I think the specs are similar. The question is, which flavour of VPN should I use? I have the option of going to the CentOS VM or I could even go via the Mikrotik at home. My home network has a fixed public IPNo accelerator chip, You should use IPsec with low P1-P2 config or WG.

A virtual interface will do.

If your clients are going to connect via WIFI in my mind is better to config it on the same device, with easier troubleshooting, and less overhead.I can also do the VPN on the SXT but I think the specs are similar
Thanks, I will give it a go. The setup on CentOS doesn't looks too crazy.@MikeKulls
Well, If availability and reliability are part of your concerns? You should use your VM. Also, Wireguard(WG) is easier to set it up vs IPsec ( IKEv2 or L2TP+IPsec).
I'm not overly concerned, I just want to protect against work logging someone clicking on the wrong link. My kids could even do it.If you are worried about what is going out of your network I don't think using your own home MT would be the best practice.
No, it is not.Thanks, I will give it a go. The setup on CentOS doesn't look too crazy.
What I told you was my personal taking you should do whatever you fill like it.I'm not overly concerned, I just want to protect against work logging someone clicking on the wrong link. My kids could even do it.
Corrected that for you ... context is slightly different.I would be very surprised if your employer tracks what websites you visit.
This comment is how I think:Hi, I have a sim card from my work. When we go away I would like to share the wifi with friends [...]
Well, if your phone would be a company controlled/managed phone indeed IT could install software to monitor that. If you then use this phone to tether with friends that is another story. (but if the phone would be locked down properly, tethering/mobile-AP would not even be possible to activate)Corrected that for you ... context is slightly different.I would be very surprised if your employer tracks what websites you visit.
