I am not familiar with configuration of routers except my home Comcast module. My Android phone is still working quite well, and has allowed us to have up to 4 devices connected at once with the WiFi pass through function. It also gives me the option to use a spare line for cellular functions while near land. That, plus portability and long battery life makes it a great solution.

I am now approaching Saint Martin and there are several carriers that seem to have T-Mobile roaming service. My plan is to set up the IMS function with 2 of them for free calling to & from US numbers on my dual sim iPhone 14 Pro Max, and also free data service.
