Hello,

I've read on some answers that - unluckily - my RUT955 does not have two modems, so it cannot manage and forward SMSes from both SIM simultaneously.

I have therefore the following questions:

  1. Does RUTX11 or any other Teltonika product provide that functionality?
  2. By using a couple of RUT240 and VRRP, would it be possible to achieve a configuration equivalent to a RUT955 with two modems? I would like SMS forwarding to be working for both SIM and each SIM to stop data connection when the monthly bundle of 50Gb is reached out.
  3. As a last resort, would it be possible to switch the SIM on a schedule basis? (example: SIM1 is active from 8.00 to 20.00 and SIM2 from 20.00 to 8.00)

Thank you.

Hello,

  1. Currently none routers from Teltonika portfolio have two modems. However, this year we will release RUTX12 router with two LTE modules.
  2. Yes, it is possible to use two RUT240, but instead of using VRRP, I suggest to use Load balancing (https://wiki.teltonika.lt/view/RUT955_Load_Balancing), since this allows both connections work at the same time.
  3. To make SIM switching on schedule, you will have configure crontab rules with command sim_switch change, check example: https://wiki.teltonika.lt/view/Crontabs#Periodic_SIM_switch
