SIM card solutions for WISP

Fri Oct 21, 2022 4:59 pm

Does anyone know how these cellular-based WISP companies are getting their cellular SIM cards? I'm interested in getting into this business because there are no local companies doing this in our area. I've spent a lot of time contacting AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile but nobody seems to know exactly how a reseller purchases the unlimited data SIMs and what plan they actually have. We have one of these WIPS companies about 90 miles away and they have set up a few customers in my area and I've seen the hardware they are using. They use a Mikrotik LHG along with a T-Mobile SIM card which works great. I just can't figure out what exactly they are doing to get the SIM cards. T-Mobile tells me that they do not offer an unlimited wholesale plan. I've talked to their wholesale department more than once and even sent them a picture of the working SIM with the ID number on it but they still can't (or won't) tell me what plan it falls under. Does anyone know?

Probably they won't tell you for whatever reason, commercially or perhaps they are bending regulatory rules.
I mean, its just a tariff-plan...no fancy technical solution of some sort.
