I want to install a 4G based doorbell/gate opener. If someone rings it basically calls you on your mobile and you can decide to let them in or not. Any ideas on what 2degrees account works best for something like that? I was thinking prepay with a regular $10 monthly account but maybe there are some special accounts that are not exposed on the website for such devices.

And before you ask, there is only power there, no wifi or any other tech.

Thanks

Oliver

No, assuming you expect it to be used more often than $20 for a year's worth of calls at 44c each would be then yes the $10/mth plan is probably the right one.

it will depend on if you want to do it personally for just you or create a service that multiple people can use and build a business around it where you could possibly leverage some of our M2M plans
