WE826 Verizon?
Posted: Wed Jul 14, 2021 1:01 pm
This is my first post and apologize for my lack of knowledge in this area of my life...
I recently bought a travel trailer/5th wheel and it came with an on-board wifi network to control all the different components. I can also buy a data plan through their proprietary agreement with AT&T for $65/month for 10GB, which seems outrageously extensive. I pulled out the router and noticed it is a WE826, so I found instructions to flash it with Rooter firmware and reset the SID back to factory so that all the components still work and then tried to put a Verizon SIM card into it, but it didn't seem to like the Verizon SIM and APN. This brings me to two questions:
1. Does the WE826 support Verizon?
2. I was hoping that I could take the SIM card out of my Verizon iPad and put it into the WE826, since it isn't likely that I will need to be connected to cellular on my iPad at the same time I am using my iPad.
Thank you!
