Hi @Eddie182487 - welcome to the forums 
M2MOne looks like a promising provider.
Singing up has been a pain and it is more expensive than I expected.
I suspect LTE is more economical if you don’t need the range and low power.
What LTE rpi HAT to do recommend?
I think this one is cheaper.
SIM7600G-H 4G HAT (B) for Raspberry Pi, LTE Cat-4 4G / 3G / 2G Support is more expensive. Almost double price.
Ta,
I presume you mean the hardware is expensive? The LTE HATs include other (un-needed) bands and GPS.
The data plans I’ve seen seem as order of magnitude cheaper for LTE - sub $1/mth.
Its all new and I may have it wrong.
I also don’t know how the data is measured. Is “Hello World” 12 Bytes or are you charged for the whole data-gram/packet. My bandwidth needs are tiny - one or two integers per hour.
I looked at the SIM7600G-H 4G and didn’t see any mention of LTE-M?
Have you used it?
