WAAV is the first company to provide broadband in your vehicle via their new AirBox cellular router line. The devices run primarily off of Sprint’s vast data network and offer up 3G broadband speeds through the WiFi hotspot or through possible wired connections.
So first you have to have an account with a cellular provider, like I said, they link to Sprint on their site, and you have to have a data plan with them. Past that you need either the WAAV AirBox, there are currently two models the CM3 and the X2.
The difference between the two is the CM3 is made for one carrier/connection, and the X2 is made for 2 connections. The 2 cellular connections that the X2 can support would allow for greater coverage if you used two different carriers and greater bandwidth anywhere the two accounts overlapped.
These two devices will work with just about anything that uses either a wifi connection or an Ethernet connection. The CM3 is available now for $499 and the X2 is also available now for $1099.
