Considering upgrading my Ring alarm base station to the Ring Alarm Pro since it has the ability to provide backup internet. I live in an area with pretty good cell reception so don’t think that will be an issue. This would purely be for emergency use cases where I needed to access services; however, I would not be running high bandwidth applications on this connection–i.e. Plex. They give you 3GB per month and every GB after that is $3. I don’t really care much about the built in router as I would just pass through the internet connection through to my pfSense box. This just appeared to be a good option as I already pay for the Ring service and would not have the added $30-$50 per month expense for something like T-Mobile or Verizon. Wondering if anyone has tried this out and had any success?

    $30-50 is the cheapest you can get a data service over there? I have multiple unlimited 5G SIMs for £16-18 per month with unlimited data.
