Using a GSM module to connect to the internet
Posted: Thu Aug 17, 2017 6:39 pm
Hi again,
inspired by this topic, I had the idea of building a small and simple GPS tracker (e. g. for my bag, if stolen or lost). Of course I could use text messages (SMS), but what about using the module (with SIM card) to connect to the internet (instead of using a wifi network)?
So, this might be a complicated approach, but is it possible to use a GSM module (e. g. SIM800L) to gain access to the internet just the way it works when I plug in my wifi stick to my computer?
Thanks for your support!
