Some people do NOT understand that cell service, of any kind, is NOT available in over 20% of the United States. Sure a hot spot is great, IF you have cell service, but not worth the box it came in, if you are somewhere in that 20%+ area.
The "new" Gen 4 system is MUCH faster than the older systems and unless you have used it, do NOT lump the 2 together. We have a satellite system at the ranch in NV, because there is NO updated cell service or cable internet for us to use. We had the older Hughes Net system and now have the latest Gen 4, so I do know the difference. I would have no problem using Gen 4 here at our mountain home, if we wanted to, as the speed with it is very fast.
It is good service and it's going to be good in your mountain home. However, it's not mobile so it's of no use to an RVer.
