DrayTek Vigor 2860LN 3G/4G LTE & VDSL Router
The Vigor 2860Ln features the same specification as the standard Vigor2860 product with the addition of built-in 4G (Cellular/LTE) connectivity, compatible with all UK/Ireland cellular networks (apart from 'Relish').
The embedded 4G/LTE connectivity provides a self-contained solution as opposed to having to add external/USB modems to your router. A standard SIM slot on the back of the router is secured with a cover to prevent accidental removal (you can leave the cover off if you need easy access).
As well as connectivity to the 4G (LTE) networks, the Vigor 2860L provides backward compatibility to 3G networks for areas or networks where 4G isn't available. Full function MS message operation also provides additional functionality and control (see later).
Your 3G/4G can provide your sole/primary Internet connection, with optional fallback (backup) to another WAN connection (DSL or Ethernet fed) or 3G/4G can be the backup to your primary DSL/Ethernet connection.
Secondary or backup 3G/4G connectivity, using a second network/SIM can be added by the use of an additional 3G/4G USB modem (not supplied). Check the compatibility list to see which USB modems are supported. Note that an external USB modem is only needed for the second cellular connection - the primary 3G/4G interface and SIM slot is built-in.
The Vigor 2860Ln also provides built-in ADSL/VDSL and Ethernet WAN connectivity for wired (broadband) Internet connections. Built-in Wireless LAN is also included (802.11n). The Vigor 2860L (as opposed to 2860Ln), available to special order does not have wireless LAN but is otherwise identical. Wireless LAN can be disabled on the Vigor 2860Ln (and can be ordered permanently disabled, by special order).
