Compatible routers?
I'd like to set up a 4G/LTE router-with-SIM to run some security cameras in Ottawa. Doesn't have to be Fizz, but I've had good experience with them in the past (both home and mobile), and their price for data-only seems very good.
I'm having trouble finding inexpensive modem/routers for this (don't want to hotspot with an old Android phone as there's too much going on [demands to reboot, emergency alerts, etc.]). On amazon.ca I found only 3 routers supporting Band 4 for under $100 ($37, $55, $90). Two have poor reviews, one has none.
Does anyone have recommendations for this?
Thanks.

Hi.
I would look at the following:
Costs more than the others but is kind of future proof. I can't recommend the cheaper ones.
It supports 4G LTE Bands B2, B4, B5, B7, B12, B13, B14, B17, B25, B26, B41, B42, B43, B48, B66, B71
Fizz uses Bands B4, B7, B12, B17.

Like all the router you should try and test it, if it doesn't work you should return it

Thank you both. The Fizz website only mentions Band 4, and the towers (from www.ertyu.org) nearest my location are all shown as 2100MHz, except one that's 700MHz & 2100MHz. Is Band 4 enough?
That Mofi unit is a bit expensive for my immediate needs. I'll keep it on file in case this turns out to be successful and needs to scale up.
