Will LB1120 work with Verizon LTE?

Will this modem work with Verizon LTE network? I am in a remote area with only SLOW dsl from land-line provider. Would like to use LTE as my only WAN access..any thoughts? TIA , David

    It will work wth Verizon LTE, however when you try to activate a SIM card there may be some issues as the IMEI or model is still not in their database. I used a SIM card already registered to a Cell phone and it works fine.

Thanks for your prompt reply. As the network thinks you are a phone, do you have any missing function or performance?

I use it mostly for machine to machine communication (M2M) and SCADA in remote locations using LogMeIn and HTML apps and it seems to work fine. As to functionality, I see no difference from using the AT&T which I have have used in another two of the LB1120.

    Thanks again. I will see if I can buy a SIM from VZ (prolly remove it from one of their mobile hotspots) and see if it will work. Will post findings here.:smileyvery-happy:
