Internet on the road
Just wondering what types of Internet service devices some of you are using. Plan to be on the road a month at a time and what is the best for a reasonable price. Thanks for all the help

- Verizon Mi-Fi. You can put it on "vacation" (with restrictions). They also have daily and monthly non contract options.
- We use a Verizon Jetpack on a prepaid monthly plan. It delivers 4G speeds pretty regularly and it defaults to 3G if 4G is not available. In fringe areas we boost it's incoming and outgoing signals with an RV rooftop cellular band antenna feeding a 12 volt Wilson cellular band amplifier.
The Jetpack is a nice piece of technology. I just wish Verizon would offer a prepaid plan with data limits high enough for streaming movies. - Millenicom x 3
Also in our Class A we have a Datastorm Automatic Satellite antenna by Motosat using Hughesnet for the internet @ $79.95/mo from Realtime Communications. Will give you internet access anywhere you have clear view of the southern sky. Downside limited speed and data download, plus Motosat folded in the last couple of years. Used systems and parts are out there, but new systems, which were about $5000 are no longer available. - For us it has been the secure VERIZON MIFI plan... We would not be happy with the WIFI connections all around that are not SECURE. We are grandfathered in with a 3GB DATAPLAN for $27. I think their current 5GB Dataplan is $60. If you plan on downstreaming TV then the MILLENICOM MIFI network has a 20GB dataplan which uses the VERIZON network for around $70-$80 a month...
The 3GB monthly dataplan is perfect for us checking-in with the kids, paying some bills on-line and minor surfing of the internet...
