Hello, and if you are reading this thanks for taking the time to help. I was curious, before I buy a Sixfab 4G/LTE Cellular Modem Kit (Telit LE910C4-NF) for my kit I was wondering if a 3G/4G LTE USB antenna modem with sim or 4G/5G Dual Band USB antenna modem with sim would work just fine across country as my data input source, while also on the same Pi 5 8gb board using a USB Dongle of some type to output Wifi 5 (and 6/6e if possible) to output the mentioned wifi? Also, when I program the Pi to function in this manner, could I also program (or would I even need to program?) the Pi 5 to also allow output via the ethernet port, or would I need a micro usb to Ethernet Port device? Thanks in advice for any help. This is my first project with the Pi and I want to have the right hardware before messing around with trying to program this, as well as using OpenWRT as I think i must. If the dongles will provide a similar result as the Sixfab option it is much cheaper. Any suggestions on the model of each usb device you would use? Thank you again in advance!

I suggest that you divide that text blob into sections so it is readable.

I could read the two first rows then ...

Or at the least add a tldr

_krazy.

Just check compactability with device and if anybody has tried it before, but for which kit to use I'm not sure, anything worth your buck is probably It.
