Hey All,

 

I am currently serving in Madagascar with an organization. I am assessing some of their technical needs - one is a better internet service and networking within their budget. 

 

One option, because fiber and adsl is not available at their location, is using a 4G provider. Both providers in the area supply a Cellular Modem/Router - but both have a "limit" of 10 devices. 

 

However, each device has an ethernet port. 

 

Has anyone used one of these devices before, and have you connected another router to the ethernet port on the modem/router, essentially using the cellular modem/router as only a modem to bypass the 10 device limit?

not sure but i think the modem/router will only be able to give 10 ip adresses out wich will limit you to only 10 devices.

What is this limit? Modems have no limits, especially when in bridge modes. If its a cheap modem router combo, most of those limit 16 devices. 

 

If you want to get around it just get your own router.
