Start with the job the router must do, not with a model number. Record the site address, the mobile carriers that work there, whether the installation is fixed or moving, and whether 4G or 5G coverage has been tested. Then list every device that must connect, the required Ethernet, Wi-Fi, serial, GPIO or relay interfaces, the expected data use, and whether inbound remote access is needed.
Also note the available power supply, temperature range, enclosure, antenna position and cable length. Uptime requirements matter: a simple monitoring point has different needs from a site that must stay online through an NBN outage. Finally, explain who will manage the router, how many similar units may eventually be deployed, and whether alerts, VPNs, dual SIM or remote rebooting are required. Giving Comset that practical site picture makes the recommendation far more useful than simply asking for “the fastest router”.
