If they don't have coverage there, then it wouldn't work. But once you activate a dish, Mobile Priority should work globally on land where there is coverage / licensing agreements.

What does it mean by locked to Verizon does that mean they will hold on to our device for 60 days or we will stay on their network, and by network does it mean for their store network or their data and what about the 60 days and during this period can we use wi-fi

Addendum to this video: If you order the plan the SIM does NOT come activated. You must chat/call Total Wireless and have the IMEI of a Verizon-certified data device in Verizon's activation database. Unfortunately, Total Wireless does not disclose this during the purchase process. Additionally, there are high-speed data add-on options available for purchase.

UPDATE: I'm exhausted. 5 reps in 2 days. Tried IMEIs from 3 Peplink routers. None worked. Tried my iPad Pro (unlocked from AT&T). Didn't work. Tried my ancient iPad (also from AT&T). Finally took. SIM worked in iPad. Placed SIM in my Peplink MAX BR1 Pro 5G x62. It works. Speedtest shows it's Verizon. (BR1 lists as "Home"). Initial results Download 8.95 to 12.55; Upload 0.88 to 1.04. But I don't care. It works! I'm definitely interested in hearing how activating goes for others. WARNING I purchased the 100GB Data Plan and received the SIM card today. So, far unable to activate. They want an eligible device. They don't have any understanding about what a router is. The Peplink IMEI shows as "Locked" on their side. They keep asking which provider I purchased my device from. Showing non-refundable. "SIM cards, airtime plans, delivery costs, return shipping costs, and/or Bring Your Own Phone program purchases, are non-refundable" I'm on hold with the 3rd representative.

$500 for the hardware that includes all the hardware and cables for common nomad use and installation. Which has minimal cost to include. $100 a month for unlimited service. I feel it's OK to cap it's maximum speeds as there doing. I'm currently not willing to jump on board. Wish I felt it was cost competitive to say cellular options.
@MobileInternetResourceCenter
@MobileInternetResourceCenter 5 күн бұрын
Well.. they are not capping speeds, it's just the result of a smaller antenna array of the Mini. Cellular and satellite internet are different things - that have pros & cons, and different costs to deploy. For nomads who really need access where there's no cell service, then Starlink is worth the cost. Otherwise, stick to the cellular coverage map.

By the way there are few apps like Dingtone, they provide cellular numbers from many countries like US UK Australia etc etc, it's functionality doesn't depend on having esim hardware on smartphones, rather it uses VoIP for calls and texts.... I just recently discovered these, and its a very good way to get a local US number before even travelling to the US. While it works on VoIP like whatsapp calls and discord on my end... The calls are actually real, and reciever gets actual real cellular call... For example if I call best buy for some orders, I'll use my internet data, and in app credits while best buy recieve normal phone call. And one more advantage of this is i can sign in to as many smartphones with the same account as I want, and have the same number, so when someone calls, all the phones ring, and i can even expand that to my laptop and desktop PC via using android emulator and getting the app there... Im very excited to get this... I'm getting this in a few days. I don't know if this is what cloud sim means
