Cradle point makes several 4G and 4GLTE compatible routers.

I’d recommend the Sierra wireless 313U USB air card or dongle as you call it. The 313u can accept an external antenna to boost reception and speeds. LTE is very sensitive to signal strength when it comes to up and down speeds.

Fr antennae solutions, the Sierra wireless website offers one for the 313u, but I recommend you call/ visit www.alternativewireless.com

Cradle Point as mentioned. This is the setup I have, got the router from Amazon for under 40 bucks. The dongle gets a better signal plugged into the cradle point than into the laptop itself.

This creates a wi-fi hotspot that can accept up to 16 computers. I run 2 at a time.

A local carrier in Toronto offers a wi-fi hotspot that the dongle plugs into, so you may be able to get one from your carrier or another source. These prices are $CAD.

I bookmarked this thread so I could understand what you were talking about.

I still don’t.

So I wouldn’t get free cable or high speed internet? Right?

I’m pretty basic and techno challenged. :)
