Getting a static IP is possible for pretty much any carrier. You WILL pay a fortune unless you use a special dealer out of Illinios. Walk into a local retailer and they what stupid pricing for cell internet.

Yes, the mofi requires a SIM and a cellular package. But there are some available for CHEAP. Unlimited speed (whatever the max is you can get where your at) and UNLIMITED data plans. Not from the local dealers though.

YOu must have a public IP address to have access back into your system. $15 a month.

We have a dozen Mofi installs. We replaced EVERY single satellite ISP customer we have with mofi. The best packages available are for TMobile and ATT. Verizon is still expensive. It works and it works GREAT. Some locations i am getting 85mpbs. Crazy. Cool. Good. Life saver. Customers are freaking out they have netflix for the first time EVER. Satellite users NEVER used netflix of course. Too much data usage.

Mofi and the special dealer in Illinois has change some of our customers lives. No shiat.
