23 days agoI use https://speedify.com to channel bond Starlink and a few LTE/5g carriers on an Ubuntu server and connect that bonded connection to my router. So I’m kind of confused by this projects naming.
Couple other things worth looking at:

I don’t know… Have you seen the rates for Findom lately!?
I ran out of chalk.
I have a Jetbrains license – am I stupid?
Old cellphone.
Ah , interesting - hadn’t seen them like that before – but the premise looks the same to what I was suggesting.
In the video on the product you can see them mucking with AT commands. OpenWRT seems to be using https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/wan/wwan/modemmanager so I think you’d just want to confirm the chips on those dongles have had success with ModemManager - and then be running ModemManager from your Pis.

I’m picking an older LTE only chip that I’m familiar with and a compatible enclosure. There might be cheaper.
It’s far from plug and play as you’ll either need to come up to speed with AT command or research if some libraries interact it. Edit: I’d look at what OpenWRT is using - I’ve plugged these into those and had a relatively plug and play experience.
Entirely possible this isn’t what you’re looking for - what’s a link to one of these dongles on Amazon?
LTE modems are cheaper - so I’d exclude 5g if your use case doesn’t require it.
I know more about the mobile internet side of things - not exactly stuff like cameras only etc.
Do you have enough signal at the farm to run cheaper devices and antennas?
Do you want to pay for multiple cell plans or would it make sense to have one command/central and increase/mesh the WiFi output?
Yeah… I was kind of worried about that but I guess that’s just if you’re running on OpenWrt device? I’m certainly not on the router plan but maybe my use of running it on Ubuntu and not going crazy on bandwidth isn’t raising flags(?)
