Where do you camp typically?
Do you have good cell coverage?
How much are you willing to spend?
We full time, so we have gotten starlink this summer and a firestick (there are other brands that do pretty much the same thing) for the TV. The starlink provides internet and the firestick uses the internet to access TV shows. Easy to set up and we were watching netflix on a mountain top 50 miles from the nearest blink and you miss it town in the Yukon this summer.
Only downside is it's expensive. $150/month and $600 for equipment.
A cheaper option if you have good cell coverage is to upgrade to an unlimited plan and use the phone's hotspot feature to feed the firestick.
If you have no cell coverage, good chance, you aren't getting old school over the air tv signals...and if you do, it's the god, god and fox channels.
