Makes me wonder why I bothered investing the extra $$$$ for the WFR. A mifi does the same thing and is much simpler to deal with.
I think you're overlooking the fact that a WiFiRanger can connect to campground wifi and a MiFi cannot. If the devices on your network are connected to a MiFi and you wish to use a CG's wifi you will need to connect each of them individually. With a WiFiRanger you need only switch the Ranger from the cellular connection to the wifi; everything else stays the same.
Although some folks maintain that campground wifi is poor, my experience lately is that many CG's have improved their systems. Furthermore, we have been at several CG's this spring where cellular service was non-existent and wifi was all there was. Try using a cell phone in Death Valley! Even mediocre wifi is better than no connection at all.
