Dunno but I know I had to sent the Verison router back because it
didn't work here. I just wanted to see what they said.

A router is mostly kind of generic. What feeds it is generally the
important interface, ie cable modem, dsl modem, fiber interface
etc.

These LTE routers have a SIM card and are essentially a phone.

WHY IS IT A HOME ROUTER? SOUNDS MORE LIKE A WIRELESS HOTSPOT.

If you don't want (or have access to) cable or fiber internet, then cell internet service via a LTE router is your best choice.

A LTE router typically has provisions for a wired RJ45 network and is usually stationary. A wireless hotspot doesn't so you have to connect via WiFi and is typically mobile.

Because it is a router (LAN switching interface) along with a cell
based WAN connection instead of cable or DSL. The thing was really
pretty cool with a "guest" mode, address translation, encryption etc.
It just didn't have a decent connection speed here.

YOU ARE PARTIALLY CORRECT. A SIM CARD IS USUALLY ASSOCIATED WITH A
PHONE NUMBER. LTE IS A CELLULAR SERVICE. A WIRELESS HOTSPOT USES
CELLULAR, LATELY LTE IS ONE OF THE CELLULAR PHONES THAT CHOICES.
ALTHOUGH MY HOTSPOT ALLOWS UP TO 10 DEVICES TO BE CONNECTED TO
IT, I CONNECT A TRAVEL ROUTER AND CONNECT MY DEVICES THROUGH IT.
THE TRAVEL ROUTER CAN BE CONNECTED TO THE HOTSPOT A VARIETY OF
WAYS. DEVICES CAN BE CONNECTED TO THE TRAVEL ROUTER A COUPLE OF
WAYS. A TRAVEL ROUTER IS BASICALLY LIKE THE HOTSPOT PORTION OF A
PHONE. IT CAN SAVE LOGON INFORMATION FROM VARIOUS WIFI HOSTS AND
RECONNECT TO THEM AUTOMATICALLY WHEN CLOSE BY. MANY PHONES CAN
SWITCH BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN CELL AND WIFI PHONE SERVICE. MINE
CAN. THERE'S A LOT OF MYSTERIOUS TECHNOLOGY OUT THERE BUT YOU
DON'T HAVE TO UNDERSTAND IT TO USE IT.

ROUTERS TYPICALLY HAVE 2 LAN MODES. 2G (LOW SPEED) AND 5G(HIGH
SPEED). WHILE 5G IS FASTER IT DOESN'T HAVE THE RANGE THAT 2G HAS.

IF YOU THINK OF WAN AS INTERNET AND LAN AS YOUR COMPUTER AND OTHER
CONNECTED DEVICES, THINGS BECOME A LOT CLEARER. CABLE AND DSL ARE
TYPES OF WAN CONNECTIONS. RG 45, CAT 5 AND CAT 6 ARE ETHERNET
CONNECTIONS. ONE OF THE ETHERNET CONNECTIONS ON A ROUTER IS
DEDICATED TO CONNECTING TO A MODEM OR OTHER DEVICE THAT CONNECTS
TO WAN. THE REMAINING CONNECTIONS CONNECT TO LAN DEVICES. WORDS
HAVE SPECIFIC MEANINGS .
