Router to use to Share LTE Connection

[michal1980]

Cant find cheap internet for my parents house, everything is 40+ dollars per month. They don't use internet a lot so low data isnt a big deal.

I was thinking of using the tmobile $30/month for 5gb of lte data as the internet provider, but to make it easier for them I'd like to hook it up there current router.

This will provide access to their pc, ooma, and the laptop they own.


Any ideas as to how to set this up as simple as possible?

technically, their $30/month 5GB 100min plan doesn't include tethering/hotspot. I think t-mobile might also blacklist (non-phone) devices from using that plan

simplest is to get a phone and use wifi internet sharing, but you'll be limited by the range of that phone/device

I think I also found that T-Mobile has a internet only plan for the same price, still need a way to connect a LTE modem/hot spot to their network

I've successfully used Verizon USB LTE sticks with the Cradlepoint routers like this one - https://cradlepoint.com/products/mbr95 .
