4G/LTE modem for Arduino

Projects General Guidance
1

Any working 4G module that can work with Arduino? In the past I ordered a GSM module for another project from ebay and was unreliable/faulty. I don't want to do "experiments" again!! Any advice? For european country...

Which one did you buy so we don't repeat it?

It's been 5 years since then... I do not remember seller, sorry. Something I want to ask: Do I "see" the 4G/LTE module as a WIFI? I mean, does it stream data? Can I insert the IP of the 4G module and access it through Chrome? How does it work?

Someone with experience to 4G modules to give an advice? Thanks...

cooperate with this:

The one is SIM7000, and the other SIM7600CE-T

I’ve had a lot of success with SIM7600 modules (4G)
A few suppliers in the arduino space.

Thanks, which Arduino libraries did you use? Because I find only for SIM7000, not SIM7600.

I’ve been using the FONA library with the 7600 (originally with the SIM5320), but it works fine.
I’ve hacked it quire a bit for better non blocking operation and some xtra features - also on the 5320, but it works fine like any other off the shelf library.

This guy here: https://create.arduino.cc/projecthub/botletics/real-time-2g-3g-lte-arduino-gps-tracker-iot-dashboard-01d471?ref=tag&ref_id=cellular&offset=0

has a SIM7000E library.

Can it work with this SIM7600:

He looks like he knows what he’s doing, so his library should be ok.
Can’t hurt to give it a shot.... I might have a closer look as well!

Good luck.
