The Routica Explorer and the Big 6 Carriers
Below is the list of how you can reduce and simplify your data coverage with Routica Explorer I.
Seamless Auto-Configuration
The Routica Explorer I stands out for its seamless and easy integration with these carriers. Our cellular router is designed to automatically configure itself to the network settings of any of the Big 6 carriers.
All you need is to insert a SIM card into the Explorer I, and the device takes care of the rest. The Routica Explorer I even includes adapters for nano or micro-SIM cards to ensure that whatever SIM you have fits perfectly.
Cost-Effective Data Sharing
One of the key benefits of using the Routica Explorer I is the ability to share a single data plan across all your devices. This is particularly advantageous for RV travelers, who typically carry multiple devices like smartphones, tablets, and laptops.
That means, instead of purchasing separate data plans for each device, you can connect all of them through the Routica router, saving on data costs and simplifying your connectivity setup.
Fully Customizable Connectivity and Extended Carrier Support
Although the Routica routers are set to automatically configure for easy use, they do not compromise on flexibility. The Routica Explorer I offers extensive customization options for those with specific network requirements. You can still manually select your carrier and adjust the APN settings for enhanced security and performance.
What if you’re using a carrier outside the Big 6?
No problem.
Our cellular router supports most third-party carriers across North America. Although auto-configuration is standard for the Big 6, the routers allow for manual configuration, which means you can easily set up a connection with other carriers by specifying the APN, username, and password, if necessary. This feature ensures that you can maintain connectivity across various carriers, catering to diverse and specific connectivity needs.
Summing Up
For the traveling enthusiast, digital nomad, or anyone in need of reliable mobile internet across North America, the Routica Explorer I router offers a compelling solution. With its robust support for the Big 6 carriers, ability to integrate with numerous third-party carriers, and customizable network settings, our purpose-built router ensures that staying connected is easier than ever.
