@relevinsky I'm not sure what you mean by "LTE server or client"? Voxl flight, when outfitted with an LTE modem, connects to a commercial LTE cellular network for Internet connectivity.

@relevinsky That is not the way LTE works. You connect to a commercial network. If you need static IPs then you need to contact your service provider and find out how to get them. That is why we use a VPN when using LTE. See https://docs.modalai.com/voxl-vpn/ for more explanation.
