We have Moto G unlocked phones currently with T-Mobile. We have traveled Coast to Coast and through a number of Eastern and Western Canadian Providences (we had full voice/text/data service in Canada with no additional cost). There were some places where cell service was not available (Yellowstone was spotty) and Alaska was a challenge as we had to roam on other cell providers and our data was limited while roaming.
We use a Wilson Amp for those weak signal locations with an external antenna. Planning for a more powerful wilson amplifier option in the future. We did not go deep into the wilderness but were pleased with the general cell coverage as we traveled. Guess it depends on how remote you want to go.
Found we could not count on RV park wifi systems. Many advertise wifi but it is often spotty, intermittent, or limited bandwidth. Had better luck with Starbucks, Wendys, McDonalds or Tim Hortons.
Good luck on your quest for reliable Internet access. You might have to limit your wilderness adventures if you want a cost effective reliable internet solution.
