Do the cars have an onboard wifi for the server-client communication? Is this API also open to the Internet over the car's cellular connection? (if there is one of course)
- timdorr 14y agoIt's over 3G for now. There is wifi hardware in the car, but they haven't built out an interface for it yet. All Model S's come with 3 months of cell service and they will be offering data plans shortly. It's running on AT&T, so we should be able to add it to Mobile Share plans (which I plan to do).
- toomuchtodo 14y agoIs the SIM soldered? Or can you drop a T-Mobile SIM card in? /T-Mobile user
- sahaskatta 14y agoI looked around and didn't see a SIM slot. Tesla hasn't disclosed the carrier in use either. They did however say that you'll be able to tether a phone with a data connection to the car via USB to avoid paying a subscription for the car.
- toomuchtodo 14y agoI don't mind paying the subscription; I just hate AT&T with the passion of ten fiery hells.
