Netgear MBR1210 in Ghana
Hello everyone… I am living in Ghana for a year. All Internet access is via Cell signal. For the past several weeks I have been writing to technology friends all over the world for info about some sort of router / access solution. Then by pure coincidence today I was in an office that had a Netgear MBR1210. Wow. I have downloaded the user manual, and have been in tech for many years. I have a few questions.
The documentation indicates that you cannot use a “local” ISP SIM card only a Bell, but that doesn’t make sense. In Ghana we have two or three ISP vendors, the vendors and SIM cards I have access to in the town where I live are Vodaphone and Airtel. Will they work?
What is the latest model of the Netgear MBR1210?
Will the Netgear MBR1210 work in Ghana, which uses the GSM spectrum, not the US CDMA.
I cannot find any pricing info, does anyone have pricing?

Hello Ggold
This is a product supported through the ISP it may work on other GSM networks but it is a modem specifically made for use with Bell.
