Connecting the Wireless LAN Device

Wireless wide area networks (WWAN) devices provide access to information anytime and anywhere you have cellular (data) coverage. In a WWAN, each mobile device communicates to a public carrier’s base station. Public carriers install networks of base stations (similar to cell phone towers) throughout large geographic areas, effectively providing coverage across entire states, or even entire countries/regions.
