What does 4G internet in cars mean?
2 Answers
4G internet in cars, also known as in-car WiFi, is similar to mobile phones in that it represents a terminal concept. It does not need to be connected to any phone to complete internet access. Below is relevant information: 1. Functions: Computers can connect to the internet to play games and browse web pages; phones can connect to the internet to browse web pages and listen to music; 4G internet-enabled cars can also connect to the internet, with many apps in the car's system for navigation, listening to music, and reading news. 2. Principle: 4G internet-enabled cars also have a "SIM card" inside, but unlike mobile phone SIM cards, this SIM card's network is specially designed and built-in, making it invisible.
4G internet in cars refers to the integration of a 4G module inside the vehicle to connect to cellular networks, enabling high-speed wireless internet access. I've used it in my car—it connects to mobile networks by inserting a SIM card or through a built-in module, with speeds similar to smartphone 4G, supporting 20-100Mbps downloads. While driving, it allows real-time navigation map updates to avoid getting lost; you can also stream music or podcasts online, making long trips less boring. Compared to in-car Wi-Fi hotspots, it's more stable because it connects directly to the operator's base station. After an upgrade, I found that my phone app could remotely control the air conditioning or unlock the doors, which is practical and convenient. However, be mindful of the operator's plan fees, starting from tens of yuan per month—choose a suitable plan based on data usage. Regularly check signal strength, as speeds may drop in remote areas. Overall, 4G internet turns the car into a mobile hotspot, enhancing driving enjoyment and convenience.
