[QUOTE="SteveS0353, post: 1201040, member: 27808"] I don't understand your reference to Bluetooth, which has a range of a couple of hundred feet and limited data bandwidth. Bluetooth is fine for headsets / audio, and human interface devices (mice...) between devices and phones in close proximity. Bluetooth is not a backup to cellular. If the car is running 3G, it's possible your phone with 4G or LTE can maintain a cellular connection when the car can't. In that case, using your phone to create a WiFi hotspot to which the car can connect, will provide the car with a network connection. [/QUOTE]
