Telkom LTE - What modem to buy?

[Frankie23]

I'm looking to get one of the Telkom LTE 20GB/30GB/50GB sim-only deals but I don't want to enter into a contract to get a LTE wireless modem.

I'd rather buy a modem cash and just get the sim on a month-to-month basis.

Any recommendations on what modem to buy and approximate price I can expect to pay?

These seem like the best bet and very decent specs.

Even the older B593 still works well, can be bought cheaper 2hnd.

I never knew that!

I was thinking of buying one at Makro, thanks for saving me the odd R400-R500

Good grief, that's waaaaay too much. Think I'll pop into my local Telkom shop later this afternoon and pick up a B315.

For Telkom you have to use the XPOL-6. Telkom works on the 2300Mhz range.

Do these B315 have Telkom firmware ? If so, is it restricted in anyway ?
