CTR500 Cellular Travel Router

How it Works:

Connect a data-ready cellular phone into the USB host port, and the CTR500 automatically establishes a connection to your cellular provider's data network. It works similar to the way a home router manages a DSL or Cable modem—connect and forget. Once you plug in a Cellular USB modem or a Handset equipped with a phone-as-modem tethered data plan, you can associate your PC with the CTR500 just like in a Café Hotspot and you're on the Internet. You can optionally use the RJ-45 Ethernet port with a wired LAN to give you easy shared wireless access when available.
