Looks great. I would love to run this, but I live in the middle of Woop Woop so I'm not sure how crucial any data I collect would be.

Juggalo heavy area?

Amazing work, I would have bought one just for this if I lived in a city and not a suburb.

I assume a paid cellular service plan for the hotspot is required for it to connect to a cell tower?

[–] root@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

So the hotspot needs a SIM card, right? Is the idea to use the SIM card in this and then connect to it from your phone?
