Cellular Amplifier & Antennae
Hi guys and gals; I'm looking at cellular amplifiers, and the installation process. Specifically, I want reliable and fast LTE internet so that we can home-school/cyber-school our kids on the road....

CA Traveler;
We will be stationary when using this system, so I don't need a mobile option on this particular one. I'm considering installing a mobile option in my SUV, but my wife says that's overkill.
So I'm going to sneak one into the truck. It'll be the new system from WIlson, which isn't for sale yet. So I have to be patient...
Wilson 2014 Vehicle LTE amplifier
I'm ok with a directional antennae for the trailer. Yes, there apps I can use. But there's also the good old-fashioned "point and try" option. I'll use a combination of both, I suspect.
Wilson doesn't have a high yield omni-directional antennae that support LTE anyways, so I'm stuck with directional and yagi options. But I'll survive. I don't think I'll be needing it at every campsite, and therefore it won't be a big issue for us to stretch it up and point it.
I'm excited about the FlagPoleBuddy; it looks like a brilliant idea, albeit a lousy marketing job. LOL
Once I've run the pole and cables, I can start using the system and test it out. If I have to upgrade to a stronger antenna, it should be a relatively easy modification. Since these amplifiers all come in kits, I have to pay for the included antenna anyways. I may as well try it out before spending the money on a 2nd antenna.
