Is it possible to plug the 4G into a wireless router so that multiple users can have access? Normally I only need to for my laptop but when I have guests I need to availability to allows others on-line access

pondview,

 

Several routers support the Pantech UML290, but I don't know of one that supports the LG modem.  The Nexaira Business Class II, the Wifi Ranger, and several routers from CradlePoint support the Pantech.  I recommend searching the EVDO forums for discussions on this topic.  Read what others have experienced.  I've been using the Nexaira router with generally positive results.

 

Having said that, do you really want to drop your wired connection from Comcast?  4G LTE has great speeds--even faster than many cable connections--but the 5G/10G cap can bite you, particularly if you need to perform software updates.

 

Cheers,

Damon

5gb/10gb caps are NOTHING for a home connection. Comcast hates me because I use 100-200GB a month on my home connection. Gotta keep all my Steam games up to date plus I'm always on Ventrilo + playing online games >_>
