Have you thought about how you plan to access Wi-Fi while in your RV? Driving to free Wi-Fi hotspots to use the Internet is a valid option, but if you plan to fully embrace the RVer lifestyle and live life on the road, free Wi-Fi hotspots will not be enough to keep you connected to the world day-to-day. Here are three paid RV Wi-Fi plans you might want to sign up for.
Portable mobile hotspots
If you are already signed up for a mobile phone service such as AT&T or T-Mobile, your phone carrier may allow you to purchase a mobile hotspot or to turn your phone into a mobile hotspot, giving you access to Wi-Fi while you’re on the go. However, mobile hotspots generally come with expensive overage fees, so if you plan on using large amounts of data, you may be better off choosing another option.
Satellite Internet
Out of all the options on this list, satellite Internet probably has the widest coverage. Satellite Internet is a high-speed, high-performance option, but it also has several weaknesses that potential customers should be aware of. First, satellite Internet suffers from high latency. Second, it is vulnerable to obstructions. Look for unlimited satellite Internet to avoid overage fees.
4G mobile Internet
If you’re looking for another high-speed option with lower latency, consider signing up for an RV mobile Internet service provider such as UbiFi. Companies like UbiFi use cell towers to provide Internet signals, reducing the delay between the transmission of signals. Furthermore, in the case of UbiFi, customers can also get unlimited 4G rural Internet with no data caps or overage fees.
