GL.inet has some LTE routers with OpenWRT on them. I haven't tried the LTE version, and the one (Shadow) I have has to be rebooted once a week, but that's a really cheap one I was trying.
The fact that this has USB type C as a option for powering it makes me very interested, but the fact that it does not have at least Wi-Fi 6E makes me not interested. So I think I will have to wait for version 2 of this.

I'm late to the party but please consider this FOSS / liberated hardware option from thinkpenguin. Highly recommended.
Powered by usb-c, runs on librecmc
