Mikrotik wAP LTE kit

What does the automotive connector look like from the car end?
I just plug the DC jack into the car's lighter socket

Haven't tried it, but considering it doesn't specify the inputs anywhere, it will be better to rather not do that, but rather using a DC jack like you currently do. I see its 9V to 30V, so maybe it should be ok on either 12V or 24V?
 
Wouldn't this work better for a car ?

LtAP mini has a special enclosure with a wall mounting kit, two SIM slots to alternate between cellular providers, and integrated GPS support, making this a perfect device for use in moving vehicles like cars, buses or trains. External GPS antenna is available for ordering separately (not included, product code ACGPSA).

Yes and no. The wAP-LTE has an automotive connector, the LtAP doesn't. Seems like the wAP-LTE will be better for automotive use then?

Doesn't matter same physical power connector DC, but the WAP lte has the automotive connector that you can wire directly to the battery from the glove box.

We use both.
 
Maybe a dumb question but I got the wAP-LTE from Scoop but this thing will not read my sim. I have tried dif sims that work in other LTE routers.

Any assistance please

EDIT: I had the sim in wrong.... FML

LOL!

It happens to the best of us mate.
 
Has anyone here had any issues with signal on the wAP LTE. I tried one in my office and I couldn't even get 2mbps through it. Latency was crazy high.
