Wi Fi boosters

What is a good one , easy set up
  • Are you just wanting better reception on campground WiFi? If so, you will probably be disappointed. Boosting will usually just make you think you have service, but frustrate you with slow bandwidth.
  • WiFi boosters can, in many cases, boost the signal you receive. They cannot boost the speed. (Maybe minor increase because less re-transmission of packets, but negligible.) So you will receive a better connection to slow internet speed.
  • I'll have to agree with the other two folks who have posted. Campground Wi-Fi is often marginal and you would be spending money to improve your connection to bad internet.

  • Any wireless receiver/transmitter will work better if it is higher off the ground. You may want a WiFi (802.11a/b/g/n) booster but may also want better cellular data (4G LTE) and you certainly would want a router so that multiple device can connect.

    Sorry for sounding like a commercial, but the Wingard Connect 2.0 does all of the above.
