Thanks for the reminder/suggestion ... for now it's enough to get it working in the mentioned way as that stick is here for some weeks only. It's only a a "test drive" and I have to return it if I don't decide to do sign a contract (which is pretty expensive ...). I research if we have good enough LTE-coverage at a customer's numerous sites as we consider to back up their insufficient internet connectivity somehow. I would have to get it running with some router-distro like ipfire or pfsense to be able to use it ... -> some more work ahead ;-) Thanks, Stefan
