Thanks Paul and Jason, I've had a look through and the sierra wireless might be my best bet for now - bummer its missing 700mhz and 2300mhz ☹ . Were staying away from the Frankenstein mini-pcie route for now as the wAP LTE Kit has us covered. The newer wAP ac LTE kit might be the go for an all in one solution (2 ethernet ports 😃 )... I think it would need to go through Australian certification, which I guess mike isn't too keen on doing again - understandably so. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if Mikrotik magically released a LTE USB modem that had all aussie bands covered.... a man can dream...

Does anyone have a USB LTE modem working in Mikrotik without the NAT/DMZ/router mode? Whether it be a ppp interface or LTE. We are aware of the newer wAP LTE Kit and have a few of them out working perfectly (Thanks DuxTel & Mike!) in passthrough mode for failover but we want to see what options are there for USBs. We have an Optus layer 2 setup so we chuck our IPs on it. https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Peripherals is a good list; but a modem that’s listed as ‘working’ may still have the double NAT situation so we are hesitant to go out and buy 10 different USB modems to see which works.
