This is not a big project but could be very important with the incredible bitter cold here in the North Texas area it was time to get ready for the bad weather and get a Meraki MG21E Cellular Gateway ready just in case the main internet went down.
Be sure to check out the MG21E unboxing with a over 10 hi-rez photos of the MG21 at:
The Meraki MG21E comes with everything you need to get started including the antennas, mounting bracket

Even though I was mounting it inside and in a protected climate-controller area it was nice to know the MG21E has a IP67 rating you can see the silicon gasket in this image that give you access to the dual ethernet ports and power jack along with the SIM card slot:
Like everything else with Meraki, it took me longer to collect my tools (level, screwdriver and pencil) than it did to mount the MG21E with the included bracket on my IDF plywood wall:
Adding to my Meraki dashboard account and hooking it to WAN 2 on my Meraki MX67, it was reassuring to know I had an alternate path to the Internet if I ever needed one.
