Pre-Sales Help

 

I am looking for a reverse router/device.

Want it to connect via cell network like a hotspot to cell provider. Want it to be positioned outside my LAN.

Want it to connect to my 'internal' TP Link multi-WAN router as if it were another Internet connection like a satellite or DSL signal.

 

Does Netgear have such a device?

Re: Pre-Sales Help

I'm not sure what you're attempting here. 

Are you wanting an LTE/cellular modem/router for your network? 

Netgear makes an orbi version (lbr20) or a router version (r7100lg) or even one of their hotspots with ethernet (there's multiple but the MR1100 does as example). 

Not sure exactly what you're attempting.

Re: Pre-Sales Help

I have an internal LAN -- lots of workstations and devices.

 

I have a TP-Link load balanceing router -- multiple ports going to the Internet.  One is DSL, another is satellite.  The router has a load balanceing alogrithim that distributes the internal traffic across the available WAN ports to the Internet. 

 

Internet is hard to get where I am but there are cell towers.

 

I am looking for a device, like a hotspot, that can connect to a the cell service and in turn connect to the router.  It would be another access pathway to the Internet. 

 

It would only have one port    going to the Internet router and modem connections to the cell signals governed by the plan that the cell folks offer.

Check out this area of the community:

 

Mobile Routers, Hotspots & Modems

That's where people turn up asking for help to set up the sort of thing you want.

 

I doubt if you'll find an exact equivalent to what you want, which seems atypical, but there may be a few clues.
