Teltonika Routers

Robustel Routers

Additional Robustel and Teltonika models are available based on customer requirements and opportunity size.

Robustel and Teltonika routers procured through Jola must be used exclusively with Jola supplied SIMs.

Suitable for mobile broadband and large scale IoT roll outs, our routers run a unique operating system allowing Apps to be installed alongside the core routing software. There is a range of off-the-shelf Apps that add additional capabilities. A Software Development Kit is available and open to enable third-parties to develop their own applications. To help accelerate IoT projects, Jola can develop Apps on a consultancy basis.

 

Intelligent 4G & 5G Routers Frequently Asked Questions

What are these routers suited for (M2M, IoT, signage)?

Jola’s 4G and 5G routers are suited to a wide range of business and industrial applications, including:

  • IoT and M2M device connectivity
  • Digital signage and remote advertising
  • CCTV and security systems
  • Retail point-of-sale and payment terminals
  • SD-WAN and broadband failover solutions
  • Temporary or mobile sites such as events or construction

Their reliability, Smart Roaming capability, and support for VPNs make them ideal for both static and mobile business-critical operations.

What is the minimum contract term?

Router contracts are available with flexible terms, typically starting from 12 months, with options for 24- and 36-month agreements for DaaS. Devices can also be purchased outright if preferred, allowing full ownership with standard manufacturer warranty support.

Do the routers support VPN, remote management or RMS?

Yes. Jola’s routers support a wide range of VPN protocols (including IPsec, OpenVPN, and L2TP), as well as remote management via manufacturer platforms such as Teltonika RMS and Robustel’s RCMS. These tools allow partners and customers to securely manage firmware updates, monitor performance, and configure devices remotely—ideal for large-scale or distributed deployments.

Can I install custom apps or software on Jola’s routers?

Certain router models, particularly Teltonika and Robustel, support custom app installation or configuration scripts through their respective operating systems (e.g. RutOS). This allows integration of bespoke monitoring tools, VPN clients, or IoT applications. We can provide assistance through our device specialists, helping you deliver solutions to your customers.

What advanced replacement or support options are available?

Jola offers advanced replacement services for most routers, ensuring minimal downtime in the event of hardware failure when purchased using DaaS (device as a service). We also provide UK-based technical support, configuration assistance, and optional remote monitoring and management services. Support SLAs can be tailored to business-critical environments where rapid response is essential.

Are these routers compatible only with Jola SIMs?

No. While Jola routers are optimised for use with Jola-managed SIMs, they are unlocked and can work with SIMs from other providers if required. However, using them with Jola SIMs ensures seamless integration with the Mobile Manager, Smart Roaming capabilities, and enhanced support for features like Fixed IP, Private APN, and L2TP connectivity.

What is Smart Roaming, and how does it benefit router performance?

Smart Roaming is an intelligent feature built into Jola’s Robustel routers that allows devices to automatically select the strongest available mobile network based on real-time signal strength and quality—not just predefined network priorities. This ensures maximum uptime, faster data speeds, and more stable connections, particularly useful for mobile or remote deployments such as CCTV or vehicle connectivity.

Do the routers arrive preconfigured or do I need to set them up manually?

Routers ordered through Jola can be supplied preconfigured and deployment ready thanks to our Zero Touch provisioning system. Routers can be deployed and once online automatically pull down a configuration per customer or deployment.

Can these intelligent routers be ordered via Mobile Manager?

Yes. Many of Jola’s routers can be ordered directly through Mobile Manager, our online SIM management platform. This gives partners and resellers full control to order, provision, and manage routers alongside their SIMs, simplifying deployment and billing across multiple customers.

Which router brands and models do Jola offer?

Jola offers a wide range of business-grade 4G and 5G routers from leading manufacturers such as Teltonika, Robustel, and TP-Link. These routers are selected for their reliability, performance, and compatibility with Jola’s mobile broadband and IoT SIM solutions. Options range from compact single-SIM devices to advanced dual-SIM and industrial-grade routers for demanding environments.
