Default hot spot?

Hi guys, I'm preparing for a long family road trip, and was wondering if there's any way to make the Jeep Wi-Fi hotspot?

The easy way would to purchase a MIFI module with a cigarette outlet charger. You would only be limited by the cellular company that you choose.

I saw a WiFi HotSpot module that plugs into your OBD Port. All my tablets have cellular and phones as well. But you could just turn your hotspot your phone on, but its better if you have 1 sim card per device.
