Can WM Motor vehicles create a hotspot?
4 Answers
WM Motor vehicles cannot create a hotspot. WM Motor: WM Motor was established in 2015 and is headquartered in Shanghai, China. The company name is derived from the German term for "world champion" and is a domestic emerging provider of new energy vehicle products and mobility solutions. Since its inception, WM Motor has formulated a clear "three-step" development strategy for the group: to be a popularizer of intelligent electric vehicles; to become a data-driven intelligent hardware company; and to grow into a service provider for a new smart mobility ecosystem. In-car WiFi: In-car WiFi is a specialized internet access device designed for public transportation such as buses, coaches, private cars, and cruise ships. The WiFi terminal accesses the internet wirelessly to obtain information, entertainment, or enable mobile office operations.
It was during a long-distance drive that I realized how practical WM Motor's hotspot feature is. On the highway, everyone in the car could connect to the hotspot to stream shows or play games. My wife used her tablet to binge-watch dramas without worrying about data limits, and my son played online games without any lag. There was no need to worry about draining our phone batteries either. With just a few swipes on the car’s infotainment screen, the hotspot was up and running, and the signal was much more stable than a phone’s. Last time we went on a mountain trip, the mobile signal was spotty, but the car’s hotspot stayed strong the whole way. The best part is that it’s powered by the car’s battery, so there’s no concern about battery life. During family road trips, the back seat instantly turns into a mobile cinema, solving the problem of restless kids in the back. Just remember to check your data plan—I use a China Unicom SIM with 20GB per month, which is enough for the whole family over two or three weekends.
From a technical implementation perspective, this feature is quite ingenious. The WM Motor vehicle hotspot uses an independent communication module, essentially equipping the car with a mini router. It automatically connects to the 4G network upon startup and consumes significantly less power compared to a mobile hotspot. The hotspot toggle can be found in the infotainment system's network settings, and setting a password is as straightforward as configuring a home router. It's particularly suitable for scenarios requiring stable internet speeds, such as real-time navigation updates where mobile hotspots occasionally drop connections - an issue the vehicle hotspot doesn't have. Practical tests show upload speeds for work files can reach 5MB/s, allowing smooth video conferences for passengers without lag. It's recommended to use a China Telecom SIM card for broader signal coverage.
This feature is a lifesaver for my daily school runs. Picking up my son at 3:30 pm, I turn on the hotspot for ten minutes as soon as he gets in the car. With his tablet playing cartoons, he becomes as quiet as a lamb. Just tap the network icon in the top left corner of the screen to enter settings, and the hotspot is up and running in thirty seconds—faster than unwrapping a snack for him. On weekends when we head to the suburbs, the kids continue watching educational videos in the car, allowing my husband and me to have uninterrupted private conversations. Occasionally, when the data runs out, it automatically switches to my phone's hotspot as a backup, which is such a thoughtful design.
