Roof antenna

Looking at fitting a sim router in the Range Rover and installing an antenna.
Does anyone know if the shark fin has WiFi for the old 3G sim built in?

Let me know if you figure this out...
I have a merryway head unit in my '16 L405 and the 4G antenna that came with it is spotty at best.
I would love to be able to tap into the in-car antenna since my truck is stuck in 3G... 2006 L322 HSE LUX 4.4NA Jag V8 Buckingham Blue/Ivory - 'Col Reb'

GPS is easy with a blue Fakra to Sma pig tail and a blue Fakra splitter.
That way you use the car antenna and not that after market thing

Do you mean WiFi (2.4 / 5Ghz) or mobile network antenna (800-3400MHz)?
There are many part numbers for the roof antenna covering a lot of function combinations including VICS & Sirius along with DAB, GPS & mobile communications, it's not easy to give a blanket yes/no answer...


I don’t know, Uk mobile WiFi as I have fitted a sim router and it has a puck antenna, I am looking for a shark fin that does the lot.

I have fitted a sim router that my android screen connects to WiFi.
It has a dedicated puc antenna for roof mounting.

Phoenix,
Are you typing in invisible ink?

Or do I just not see your responses on the iPad? 2006 L322 HSE LUX 4.4NA Jag V8 Buckingham Blue/Ivory - 'Col Reb'
