Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Autonet Mobile is a smart addition to any vehicle, combining 3G data technology and Wi-Fi, to turn your vehicle into a Wi-Fi hotspot. Autonet Mobile goes beyond in-car DVD players and mobile broadband cards by connecting multiple passengers and multiple Wi-Fi devices in and around the vehicle for hours of entertainment and productivity. With our wireless technology, it does not matter if you are in the car or right outside of it, you'll always be connected.

Road Trips just got Easier!
Autonet Mobile will connect your entire family on the road simultaneously. Instead of watching the same old DVD, now kids can play with Webkinz, chat on Facebook, and watch YouTube videos--all from the back seat!

Stay productive on the Road
Spend more time doing the things you love by working in your car. You will not spend another wasted second looking for a Wi-Fi hotspot, typing on the tiny keypad on your Smartphone, or fiddling with a broadband card. Autonet Mobile gives you back valuable hours of time by keeping you connected and productive in your car. Just flip open your laptop to send emails, make reservations, and buy last minute gifts--all from your car.

Internet: 150ft from your car
Autonet Mobile not only turns your car into a Wi-Fi hotspot, but it turns your workplace into one too. You can connect to the Internet up to 150ft away from your car. This means that everyone at your job site can connect to the Internet at the same time, no matter what type of Wi-Fi device they use. Look up blue prints, upload photos, check your email, schedule appointments, and more--all from your vehicle.

TRU Technology
TRU Technology is an innovation from Autonet Mobile that makes your in-car Internet experience a pleasurable one. As your car travels down the road at high speeds between cell towers, Autonet Mobile will keep you connected by managing your cell tower handovers seamlessly. As you move down the road at high speeds with a conventional cell card or cell phone, you may experience the "dropped call syndrome," often forcing you to restart your device and software. Our solution provides you with a constant connection, so you never experience the frustration of having to resend an email attachment twice or watch a choppy YouTube video.

Why Autonet Mobile is such a value
Autonet Mobile allows you to connect just about any Wi-Fi device you can think of to the Internet, and what's better is that it costs just a fraction of the cost of a broadband card. Autonet Mobile only requires a one-year agreement and the entry-level monthly service plan is approximately 50% less than a broadband card. Autonet Mobile doesn't charge overage fees, nor are there taxes and surcharges in your monthly bill. The advertised monthly price is all you'll pay--no more, and no less.

Autonet Mobile offers two flat-rate annual plans, automatically billed monthly to your credit. With our affordable rate plan, you are not subject to taxes, surcharges or over MB usage fees.

When your car is a Wi-Fi Hotspot you can:

Watch online videos in your car
You can spend hours online in the passenger seats entertaining yourself with the millions of online videos. Thousands of videos are uploaded to You Tube everyday. Why watch a DVD in the car when there's always something new to watch online? Autonet Mobile's TRU Technology makes watching videos online a great experience.

Play Online Games
Your kids won't be asking "Are we there yet," when millions of their favorite video games like Webkinz are free to play online. If they don't want to play an online game, they can always hook up their Wi-Fi enabled gaming device including Sony PSP's, PlayStation3 or Xbox 360 to play against their friends who are miles away.

Listen to Internet Radio
With the Internet in your car, you will be able to stream your favorite online radio sites straight into your car! The best part is, Internet radio doesn't have commercials and it's free. If your car has an auxiliary jack, just connect it to your streaming device to enjoy your favorite music!

Social Networking in the car
You will be able to keep your social network updated with your laptop or mini-PC no matter where you travel. Imagine posting updates about every stop on your journey, or uploading your vacation photos with your digital camera and EyeFi chip within seconds after they were taken?

Internet outside of the car too
Autonet Mobile lets you connect outside of your car too. If you've stopped to camp for the night, or just to take a pit stop at a local cafe, Autonet Mobile works in and around your vehicle so you'll stay connected within a 150' radius of your car.

Professional Installation Recommended
Installernet has a network of Autonet Mobile certified installers at thousands of locations across the country. To have Autonet Mobile installed by a certified installer, a separate Installernet install-card can be purchased for an additional fee.

Installation of Autonet Mobile is relatively simple, the unit requires just four screws, a power and a ground, and can be installed in any type of vehicle. A small percentage of Autonet Mobile customers choose to do the install on their own.

Autonet Mobile KT-ANMRTR-01 Automotive Wi-Fi Router

I thought it was about time someone provided online access from the car so I'm a real fan of this product because it offers this very service. I love having full Internet access from the car. I can get on Mapquest to find alternate routes while traveling and what's especially valuable for me is being able to check my work email, work on projects and make use of travel time while a passenger. I haven't had any problems with the connections either.

Great on short trips around town or long road trips, went through northern deserted portion of new mexico and still had reception, found no other apparent dead spots. The device itself is nice and compact fits easily into the vehicle. In the year of owning a device and the one or two slight difficulties, customer care was always prompt and very helpful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Autonet Rocks!, June 24, 2009

By 

Earl Sanders (Dallas, TX USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Autonet Mobile KT-ANMRTR-01 Automotive Wi-Fi Router (Electronics)

I bought one of these Autonet routers from another site after I had tried the MiFi and the Clearpoint routers. Those routers worked fine at the house, but once I put them on the car it was hopelessly frustrating. They just can't keep a signal for some reason, but the Autonet was rock solid. Even in areas where my cell phone was marginal my Autonet stayed up. The best thing about Autonet though is their customer service. Even though they use Sprint and Verizon, they have their own tech support. They were able to help me get everything going and when I needed support with the MiFi, I had to go through Sprint. (You can guess how that turned out)
