Since rayhunter is getting more popular let's set some expectations around pricing. There are currently offers ranging from 20 to 90 USD, and people should understand that the 20 USD offer is not a fake, or anything like that.

# Orbic/Kajeet RC400L
|
|
|
|
The Orbic RC400L is an inexpensive LTE modem primarily designed for the US market, and the original device for which Rayhunter is developed.
|
|
|
|
It is also sometimes sold under the brand Kajeet RC400L. This is the exact same hardware and can be treated the same.
|
|
|
|
You can buy an Orbic [using bezos
|
|
bucks](https://www.amazon.com/Orbic-Verizon-Hotspot-Connect-Enabled/dp/B08N3CHC4Y),
|
|
or on [eBay](https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=orbic+rc400l). You should not
|
|
pay more than 30 USD for such a device (without shipping).
|
|
|
|
[Please check whether the Orbic works in your country](https://www.frequencycheck.com/countries/), and whether the Orbic RC400L supports the right frequency bands for your purpose before buying.

## Two kinds of installers
|
|
|
|
The orbic's installation routine underwent many different changes:
|
|
|
|
1. The ADB-based shellscript prior to version 0.3.0
|
|
2. The Rust-based, ADB-based installer since version 0.3.0
|
|
3. Then, starting with 0.6.0, an alternative installer `./installer
|
|
orbic-network` that is supposed to work more reliably, can run over the
|
|
Orbic's WiFi connection and without the need to manually install USB drivers
|
|
on Windows.
|
|
4. Starting with 0.8.0, `orbic-network` has been renamed to `orbic`, and the
|
|
old `./installer orbic` is now called `./installer orbic-usb`.
|
|
|
|
It's possible that many tutorials out there still refer to some of the old
|
|
installation routines.
|
|
|
|
## Obtaining a shell
|
|
|
|
After running the installer, there will not be a rootshell and ADB will not be
|
|
enabled. Instead you can use `./installer util orbic-shell`.
|
|
|
|
If you are using an installer prior to 0.7.0 or `orbic-usb` explicitly, you can
|
|
obtain a root shell by running `adb shell` or `./installer util shell`. Then,
|
|
inside of that shell you can run `/bin/rootshell` to obtain "fakeroot."
