In-car WiFi hotspot

General

I am about to switch wireless providers, and I discovered that the car itself can function as a WiFi hotspot with Verizon. Although I have seen it on other automobiles, I have never used it. My girlfriend’s granddaughters do have tablets that need to be connected to WiFi, so I often have them in the van with me.

What is the advantage if any of utilizing the automobile as a hotspot over using one of our phones for the same function?

I’ve used my car as a WiFi hotspot a few times, and it’s super handy. One big perk is that it usually offers a stronger and more stable connection compared to using a phone. I’ve noticed my phone can get pretty hot and drain the battery fast when it’s acting as a hotspot. Plus, it frees up your phone for other uses while your granddaughters stay connected. It’s like having a mini WiFi router on the go
