Hi, I wanted to setup a cellular connection as a backup in case the home internet goes down.  I was wondering if I plug in a cellular USB card, like the Netgear Aircard, into the USB port of the Obi202, will it work?  Thanks in advance.

No it won't work for several reasons.  For one, OBi firmware contains no "driver" for any make or model of cellular modem.
