The BT-6600 is a $600 business modem.
The BT-6621 is an $850 business router.
Your other links are even more expensive enterprise gear. Several of which aren't even commercially available yet. |

Honestly, you can do the same thing with an old PC, a $29 Verizon USB modem and pfSense. I use my verizon air card as a backup for my whole network when the power goes out (and so does cable) all the time. |

1 edit | reply to TKJunkMail That's like saying a full enterprise rack server can be used at the home.
Can it be used at the home? Sure
Is it expensive? You betcha
Is it practical for use at the home by home users? No
Is it practical for use by business? Sure
Besides, 1 out of 29 products being approved for use by consumers doesn't exactly inspire great odds and confidence for the consumer market. But on the other side of the coin, it is good that Verizon has allowed independent vendors to create products to be used on their network, even though it is mostly for commercial use. A lot of commercial products have a retail basis. It remains to be seen if the vendor who are creating the devices for the commercial industry sees a practical use for their product in the retail market. -- The true patriot is motivated by a sense of responsibility, and out of self interest -- for himself, his family, and the future of his country -- to resist government abuse of power.
