Have a look at Swift Enduro on Outdoorcameras.com.au (Toowoomba QLD). They make a 4G model which we’ve had deployed on a property 350 km away. Dual antennas, although they seem to be pretty sharp at securing a signal even in a modest strength area. They will also retro connect to 3G if that’s all you have in your Area. We have good Optus 4G at our property, and the camera’s features can only be fully realised with 4G. Takes 12 AA’s, and we’ve gone with Eneloop blacks which are more expensive but have shown terrific results in the other 3 non 3/4G Enduros we have on our other property. We bought the cam as a package with a solar battery unit ... which has been a real boon. The units are hard wired together, coming with a decent lead, and the solar unit’s internal lithium battery strength has never fallen below 100%. It doesn’t use the cameras batteries until the solar unit’s internal battery is low. The cam can be programmed in a number of ways, but we have it set to transmit bursts of 3 photos to our email. If you are using Telstra network you can opt to have the images come direct to smartphone. Quality is great, but night time images, as is the case with all of them, still has a way to go. You can also have a daily report sent to you outlining basic parameters. The company also sells a great 12 AA/AAA charger like nothing we’ve seen before. Well worth the outlay. You could also check Proschoice.com.au ... their Bravo 4G looks suspiciously similar ... as does their solar panel/battery. We have zero affiliations with either, BTW.
