Mobile LTE router - Cell C and Telkom

[rodga]

Hi all

Im looking to get a mobile lte router mainly for use on Telkom ie 2300Mhz
But would also be using Cell C occasionally, not sure what frequency they use. Google says 1800/2100??

What are my options that will cover both of these situations? Model numbers would be great!
Where can I get the best device only deal?

Thanks

Cell C LTE band is 2100MHz. In the areas of enabled LTE-A they refarmed band 1800MHz for LTE, but you should target 2100MHz, as your speeds migh be limited (due to limited spectrum or preference for LTE-A).

Any B315s-936 from Telkom or Cell C (no matter). More info http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/showthread.php/777667-HUAWEI-B315s-LTE-router-discussion-thread
If you want portable device, MiFi routers do their job a well, butI don't know exact model numbers.

Huawei model numbers are always messed up, save yourself the headache and go get the Mifi device from Telkom.
