The `netgear_lte` sensor platform allows you to monitor your Netgear LTE modem.

This requires you to have set up the [Netgear LTE component](/components/netgear_lte/).

## {% linkable_title Configuration %}

To enable the sensor, add the following lines to your `configuration.yaml` file:

```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: netgear_lte

      - sms
      - usage
```

{% configuration %}
