Hello,
I need to set up an internet connection for my home's heat pump (or the warranty will expire). Since the house where I need to set it up is not yet finished and there is no internet near me, the only Internet choice I have is Satellite (at least for now)
The heat pump I'm using is Luxtronik 2.0 (if that helps).
You can connect the Heat pump only by LAN. So I need to find a 4G supported modem which has LAN built in (pretty simple).
But the house has 2 floors and a total of (250m^2), so I need to take into consideration the Router I will most likely need in the future. All 4G compatible routers I've checked are only compatible with 4G modems that have USB (No LAN, (which I need)).
Now I researched and came to a conclusion of 2 choices:
1. Buy a 4G modem (USB, NO LAN), in which I insert a SIM card, use a USB to Ethernet adapter to connect it my heat pump, and later buy a compatible ASUS router to whom I will connect with USB. However, I have serious doubts whether the USB to Ethernet adapter will work for my Heat pump. I was thinking of buying this
2. Buy a NETGEAR R7100LG (quite expensive) which supports SIM cards and acts like a Router. So I should have no problems connecting it to my heat pump via LAN (I think). The problem is the price, I don't think I really need a ~280$ Router.
3. Buy a 4G Modem that has LAN. Connect it to my heat pump. And when I move in the house throw it away or sell it. And buy a new 4G Modem which supports the wanted Router.
What is the best solution here for me? Please help out, cause I've been stuck on this problem for quite some time
