Pocket-Sized 3G/4G/LTE USB Cellular Modem Bridge (Mini Router)

Interesting find. Proxicast PocketPORT 2: Pocket-Sized 3G/4G/LTE USB Cellular Modem Bridge (Mini Router)

3 Modes of Operation

  1. Bridge Mode - plug a USB modem into any Ethernet port
  2. Router Mode - provide an Internet connection to an existing network
  3. Virtual Cable - create a secure Ethernet connection between any Internet connected devices

If you would have good Cell Tower service at home this would (maybe) take some latency out of the system.

Not sure if this would direct connect the Flex-6000 series but it looks like it has a possibility.

How about one on each end? The maestro and then the Flex-6000 series.

If anyone find's more of something of this idea Please do post!.

Maybe a dream but someone might know about this kind of things.

    Funny you should mention this....

    I use MIFI Hotspots that I carry in my pocket that I use to connect my iPad and computers to my Flex 6000 series from All Over the World.  In fact I just tested a Maestro using a K6OZY configured Raspberry Pi 3 VPN to provide VPN Service to my Maestro to my home network in anticipation of Heading back to France on Wednesday


    What is MIFI.. MIFI is a small cellular hotspot that you connect via its internal WIFI router to the various devices you carry and via 4G LTE to the cellular network

    My current favorite brand is  Huawei E5377TS-32 Unlocked 150 Mbps 4G LTE Mobile WiFi Hotspot WITH 3560mAh POWERFULL BATTERY (4G LTE in Europe, Asia, Middle East, Africa & 3G globally)        


    In fact I wrote a paper about "How to Save Money Roaming"
