Unless you are hard-wiring the router into your vehicle for a more permanent installation, you will need a cigarette lighter adapter. This adapter is powerful enough to provide power to the router for extended periods of time. It makes it easy to move the router to different vechicles if necessary.

SIM Card

SIM Card

A SIM card, which stands for subscriber identity module or subscriber identification module, contains unique information that identifies it to a specific mobile network, which allows the subscriber to use the device on the network. The Pepwave BR1 Max router can support two SIM cards from either the same or different providers meaning that you may acheive higher speeds than with one provider or one SIM card. It can also provide redundancy for critical applications. We purchased a SIM card from Verizon and have had excellent results in our area, even from the air.
