New 4G internet help

I am setting up an in home wifi system.  I believe I'll be using an At&t sim card for my provider.  I need help on the best equipment to use.  The house is approximately 3000 sq ft and will have less than 10 devices.  We do have one gamer in the house as well.  I was thinking a Nighthawk.  If going that route will I need a router designed for a sim card as well or will this do all.  Any boosters to boost the signal strength and wifi strength will be helpful as well.

 

Thanks,

 

B

Cell is your only service? Its not the greatest for gaming. 

I'd look at getting a modem only hotspot like the LM1200 (or a 5g hotspot if you have that option). 

Then just add a standard mesh system to it. That way if you do get dsl/cable/fibre/starlink you can keep using your mesh system with whatever gateway you get.

It also depends on the wireless coverage at your home. If it is too far from the cell tower, the data speed be pretty bad.

 

Thanks
