Aircard 785 unlocked: Simcard required?

[gids]

Can the Aircard 785 be used as only a wifi router, without a simcard being installed?

Or is a simcard mandatory for the Aircard 785 to become operational and configurable as a wifi router?

Hello gids 

How are you going to get internet to the device without the sim card or you just wanting to run it as a local wifi network with no internet?

Yeap in my trailer I want to stream a video (already on my iPad) from my iPad > Apple TV > TV

I don't need for this use case a connection to the internet...
