Buy a GL-AR300M router

From GL inet.

Connecting

Power on with USB Power
Plug LAN cable from internet router LAN to AR300M WAN port
Plug LAN cable from AR300 LAN port to computer LAN port

Access AR300M

Visit in browser: 192.168.8.1

Check if Firmware should be upgraded (Remember to tick on to keep settings)

Go to the advanced page 192.168.8.1/cgi-bin/luci

Access with ssh

ssh root@192.168.8.1

With ssh terminal, see basic info

uci show network.lan

Install common tools

The 'bash' shell has some better tools for scripts and functions.

# Update and see if bash is available
opkg update
opkg list | grep ^bash
# Install
opkg install bash git git-http curl wget 
opkg install nano diffutils grep ca-certificates

# Fix git-merge
ln -s `which git` `which git | sed 's/git/git-merge/' `

Log out of ssh and log in again. This is update any path changes.

Get setup scripts

In the router, clone the folder with setup scripts

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/tlinnet/voxwifi.git
cd voxwifi

Install 4G driver

We will install the drivers for the "HUAWEI E3372 LTE” 4G USB modem.

Before installing, try to find the IP you have now

wget http://ipinfo.io/ip -qO -

Then install

source 01_install_4G_driver.sh

The "HUAWEI E3372 LTE” 4G USB modem will make it's own subnet 192.168.8.1.
Therefore we need to change to another subnet. Remember, the subnet on your own internet router is probably 192.168.0.x or 192.168.1.x or similar.
So the script will automatically change to 192.168.5.x

The script will also reboot the router and make your SSH terminal freeze.

Wait 5 min, close your terminal window, and start another terminal.

Access with ssh

ssh root@192.168.5.1

Now do some checks

# see log
logread
# see network
ifconfig
netstat -nr
# See the current external IP
wget http://ipinfo.io/ip -qO -

Now, plugin the 4G modem in the USB.

# see log
logread | grep wan2
# see network
ifconfig | grep -B 1 -A 7 192.168.8
netstat -nr
# See the current external IP
wget http://ipinfo.io/ip -qO -

The last 2 commands should show, that you have changed your gateway and external IP address. Congratulations, the 4G modem is working.
