Hi Guys,
I would like to make a paid hotspot in area where is not LAN access at all. So take the signal from 4G network simcard, for example the Asus 4GN12 router, then connect it to Ubiqiti Unifi and there make a paid hotspot with homepage.
Do you think this idea would work?
thank you

Verify with your provider you can actually do this.
Reselling those services is often not allowed. And as above, you would probably be on the hook for any illegal/illicit content that passes through your network.
It likely is not legal to resell service unless you have a account designed for that purpose. Your largest issue is going to be the bandwidth cap on the 4g card. There is no such thing as a truly unlimited connection. I suppose if the provider is ok with it and you could charge enough to cover your costs you could put in a hotspot service. The huge issue with providing any form of internet is finding a way to shield yourself from the wrong doing of the actual users. Pretty much if someone download copyrighted material or post child porn they will find your name first.
