Question about Xiaomi 5G CPE Pro
I would like to install this device in my caravan. As we are on campsites, I would like to ask whether this device can also be used as a WiFi router without a SIM card? Is it possible to log in via the campsite's wifi and connect several devices to the wifi via the router? On many campsites you have to buy a separate access for each device, now I am looking for a router where I only have to buy one access to the wifi and can connect the rest of the devices to the router. Thank you very much

The router cannot be used as a pure Wi-Fi repeater or client to log in via the Wi-Fi of a campsite and then pass this on to several devices via its own Wi-Fi. It is primarily designed to convert 4G/5G mobile phone signals into Wi-Fi signals via an inserted SIM card.
This means that without a SIM card, the device cannot receive internet and therefore cannot provide Wi-Fi for other devices. The router is not intended to be used to log into an existing Wi-Fi network (e.g. from a campsite) and then distribute this to multiple devices via the router.
This device is therefore not suitable for your plan to buy access to the campsite's Wi-Fi only and then pass this on to several devices via the router. It does not support a WLAN client or repeater function to use an existing WLAN as an Internet source and redistribute it internally.
