Hello there,
Just wondering whether anyone can recommend a particular carrier/option/choice for a SIM card to use in IoT hardware?
UK networks only please!
I think some more information would be nice.
Is the device supposed to send or receive?
Data or simple messaging?
What kind of traffic do you expect? Streaming video or a few status messages a day.
Fair point — data only, probably around 200mb a month? Planning to run a simple web server, nothing too heavy.
You can’t expose ports on mobile data. You can ether host the web server at home or on a vps or use something like tailscale.
What about Cloudflare? You can tunnel to them instead of Tailscale’s limited public serve
I’m not really a fan of cloudflare tunnels, but I guess thats an option too
Idk about the UK, but in Australia if you’re only sending a small amount of data, some carriers offer IoT plans starting at ~$1/month. So maybe some carriers do the same in the UK?
