I have ATT but I thought I read somewhere where you could sign up for service for $90 and then just get the unlimited hotspot for like $30 for two lines. Didn’t know about it having to be a business account but I’ll have to look more into it.

I don't know all the details but we have a few clients that use them for remote scale houses and they were all unlimited.

We stuck the sim card in a CradlePoint router which then also served as the local Wifi.

Only ones I know of are ATT business plans and Govt plans. Business plans are a bit pricy, gov plans a cheap but of course you have to be a gov agency. I heard the business plans do throttle but is after an extreme amount of data, I know a guy with a gov hotspot and he says no throttling at all.

You'll have to go through a 3rd party LTE internet vendor. That's the only way to get decent internet in rural areas....period.

Everything you need to know is at this link. It includes a link of known vendors. Be sure to go read the reviews on each one. A few vendors are really shitty and a few are really good. Stay away from GotW3 and Unlimitedville. They recently had shite fall through with some of their AT&T resellers and are getting throttled really bad. Also go to cellmapper.net to figure out what towers/service are closest to your house. A lot of these vendors offer a Rural/Blue plan (AT&T sim card) and Urban/Pink plan (T-Mobile sim card). A handful offer a Red Plan (Verizon Sim Card).
LINK

You'll also want to purchase a Yagi Directional Antenna and you'll need to purchase an ultra low loss coax cable with N male to SMA female connectors. Most LTE modems have an SMA male connector on the back for antennas. Try to use the shortest coax cable possible because you lose 1 decibel of signal gain for every foot of cable over 20 feet.
