You will need a cellular module with this system. Same if you'll want WiFi capability.

This is a display replacement which doesn't have cellular modem. It's your phone motherboard which has the modem that determines whether it will work with t-mobile (gsm) or Verizon (wcdma)

I only use land line. But the product instructions manual said that you can setup with mobile phone. I have never tried to use the mobile phone feature.

it uses standard sim cards. if you need to use micro sim cards you'll need an adapter for micro sim to sim.

You need a SIM card just for the alarm system. There is no programming of your cell phone.

My understanding is that if the phone is unlocked, it can be set up with any cell phone provider. But, to ensure this information is correct, contact customer service and they will advise you for sure. This is what I did before purchasing the cell phone. Good Luck!

Hi, I am not a 'techy' but I just purchased the Nokia E63-2 from Amazon and it came with a free Mobal SIMM card whitch you can use to activate cell phone service and this would allow the E63 to connect to internet on the cell carrier in your area. It is expensive and you also need aUSB cable from your phone to the computer to make a connection. You could buy another type of phone but need to make sure it takes SIMM card and I suggest covers at least 4 frequencies in the GSM. You could even get one from AT&T; of their website just make sure it does what you want. The service on any cell will be over $1 per minute for where you are. Hope this helps. Retired USMC.

If the description is just Wi-fi, then no, you can't hook it to a cellular provider. If it's Wi-fi + Cellular, yes, it's "ready" for your cell plan. My advice is, if you can afford it get the Cellular version even if you don't plan to use that right away. You can't add cellular capability to the device after the fact if you change your mind, as I did after a few months: for $10 /mo. on Verizon it turned out to be worth it after all.

The Onboard communicator is a hard-wired Ethernet connection, it requires an internet connection. The GSM module provides for a cellular uplink to the monitoring company and does not require anything additional. Keep in mind that monitoring companies charge an additional fee per month to cover the cellular cost.

It does work with Consumer Cellular. I bought it specifically to use with CC and it does!

You just need a 3G sim card and a 3G network. I've used it with 2G and 3G and the network switch it made automatically by the modem

I bought the sim card first and then activate it. The sim card is very cheap tho.

Your phone needs to be unlocked and you need to have a micro SIM, which this is not. You can either cut it down yourself following a tutorial such as ones founds on You Tube or you can purchase a cutting tool or you can buy directly from Cellular Abroad.

Amazon needs to update that photo of the bottom of the unit showing the ports. It is misleading people in thinking it can be used as a cellular device. The picture shows there is a socket for a sim card which there is NOT.There is no sim card support for this device so connecting directly to a cellular network is not possible. However, it does have a micro usb port, and wireless. If your 3g services support tethering devices to your phone it should work that way without a problem.
