Verdict

The Verizon 4G LTE Broadband Router with Voice (Novatel T1114) is a hybrid connectivity solution featuring three 10/100 Ethernet ports, two RJ-11 telephone jacks, and support for up to 10 Wi-Fi devices on a dual-band 2.4GHz/5GHz network. It is designed to replace traditional landlines by delivering simultaneous voice and 4G LTE data services, and includes a built-in battery backup for voice continuity during power outages. Main pros include its plug-and-play portability for temporary offices or rural areas and the convenience of combining home phone and internet on a single Verizon cellular plan. However, significant cons include relatively low maximum Wi-Fi speeds of approximately 12 Mbps, lack of 3G fallback, and performance that varies greatly depending on LTE signal strength.
