Good Wi Fi for RV: Is it Possible?

As everyone knows, campground wi fi is usually poor.

I didn't find that to be true last year when we visited 43 campgrounds over 5 1/2 months. In fact, about 40% of the time we had streamable campground WiFi (5 Mbps or over).

I think most of the folks who post here are not full timers like myself and who pretty much go to the same campgrounds on the weekends. So if they have bad WiFi in these campgrounds, they assume that it's rotten everywhere.

I would like to be able to get a wi fi signal that is reliable and strong enough to permit us to use internet TV such as Netflix or YouTube TV as well as basic applications such as email and video conferencing.

To me, as soon as you talk about streaming TV, I think you'll need 5 Mbps down to be comfortable.

I would not bother with cell or WiFi boosting. For me, the cost didn't justify the so-so results. But I do suggest cell carrier options. For example, I have one AT&T (Mobley) and two Verizon (Visible & an older) cell data plans.

You may end up using campground WiFi for the slow stuff like email and cell data plans for streaming.

Do yourself a favor, buy a subscription to MIRC. Great advice. They clued me into the Mobley.
