Carrier or Reseller Options for MoFi 4500 SIM4 w/ Sierra Wireless MC7455 Cellular module

[dnfa1975]

Hello All,

I'm new to this forum and wanted to see (like most people these days) any recommendations on options for using a MoFi 4500 SIM4 w/ Sierra Wireless MC7455 Cellular module?

My family and I are currently on the road for the next 6 months plus while I'm working and we are exploring BLM/National Parks on the weekend but I need to work during the week.

I previously had Trifecta wireless with Verizon but they were "shutdown" by Verizon and it appears that many if not all resellers are experiencing the same fate. COVID-19 has pressured the system if you will and I think all providers are looking to squash abusers (or not) on their networks.

So I'm on the road, not wanting to deal with RV Park WiFi and wanted to see if anyone could provide possible solutions? We do some Nextflix streaming at night, but the majority of my works is over RDP for 8-10 hours, which calculates btwn ~25M and 50M per hour.

I have an AT&T iPhone (for work) and haven't heard of much success tethering to the MoFi and I think it uses hotspot anyway. Looking for a couple options and am willing to pay, since Trifecta was $129 a month.

Additionally we are traveling to relatively remote areas within Utah, Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana so service will be ok at best I assume. I have dual Yagi Ant. with a 25ft telescoping pole attached to my rig, so will be able to point a different towers.

Basically I've exhausted my hours going down wormholes on the interwebs and wanted to see if anyone could point me in a good direction.

Thanks in advance for any assistance and hope everyone is safe and healthy during this time.

Cheers!

If you are traveling around allot might need more than one service to make sure you are always connected. Might want to try Visible and T-Mobile.
T-Mobile phone Sim will work in the Mofi.

Can also get a unlimited hotspot plan uncapped thru T-mobile that you can use right thru a phone as well.

Honestly don't know if you can get the visible to work in the mofi but might not need to can work it thru a phone tethered.

This is a post about visible being put into other routers other than the Mofi if you need it hooked to outside antennas to work.

Never used one of these but you might be interested in this video here.

Thanks for taking the time to respond! I'll check out these links and definitely look into T-Mobile.

From what I've read, Visible isn't an option for MoFi...but I'll dig deeper and check out these links.

Cheers!
