DT Brings Wi-Fi to the Car

March 05, 2013 |
BONN, Germany -- The car is becoming a hotspot on wheels: At CeBIT 2013, Deutsche Telekom and the BMW group revealed how high-speed LTE Internet can be reliably introduced into cars. Drivers and passengers can go online with as many as eight WiFi devices at a time and enjoy a broadband connection with a speed of up to 100 megabits per second on their cell phone, laptop or tablet computer.

“Deutsche Telekom has built up a base of 12,000 hotspots in Germany and 50,000 worldwide. We already provide travelers in trains and planes with broadband, and now we’re adding cars to the list,” says Reinhard Clemens, Member of the Deutsche Telekom Board of Management and CEO of T Systems. “Having hotspots for everything makes unlimited digital mobility possible throughout your entire journey, even on different modes of transport.”
