Hello,

 

Had a quick question for everyone. I was looking at the cellular towers in near Haliburton. I was looking here and I noticed that there are no Telus towers in that area. I find this odd because I get great reception in that area and my phone never “roams”. Does Telus piggyback off other carriers? Can someone explain how this can be?

 

Rogers cannot offer LTE internet to my location but Bell can. Unfortunately, the Bell tower has been full for years and will continue to be so for some time. I was thinking a decent Koodo/Telus plan could do the trick and I would stick it into a phone with hotspot or an LTE router. If I want to go the latter route, I want to figure out what towers it would be using.

 

Thanks!

{Bell  & Telus} share towers, {Rogers & Videotron} ditto.

Running a hotspot to feed computers will run up the cost & consumption quickly.

@BobTheElectrician Thanks for that info, it is exactly what I was looking for.

Good point on the consumption. My use case does not involve computers so I think the data usage will be very minimal. I am doing a feasibility study now on the consumption.
