+1 on the Weboost. I have the "Drive" unit and added their OTR antenna. 1 bar will turn in to 5. I work from my camper using ZOOM for video conferencing and it works well.FleetToy said:Has anyone had a good experience with finding a good Wi-Fi and cell phone extender?
What? and Why? Inquiring minds want to knowVic Harder said:Seriously looking to upgrade to a much more expensive and capable unit next camping season!
Would not the metal camper roof and steel ground plane shield against that?rando said:One note of caution, the inside antenna is very low gain for a reason - if it were higher gain you would get feedback from the outside amplified antenna, end up in an infinite loop and the booster will shut down . . .
The antenna doesn’t need an electrical ground. It needs an RF ground which is provided by the antenna and coax shield. Depending on the antenna mount, the ground side will be coupled electrically or capacitively to the roof as a ground plane. It’s all magic. Just follow the manufacturer’s recommendations.rando said:If your ground plane isn't great, then the 'trucker' antenna may be better as it does not require a ground plane:

I wasn't sure how well the camper roof was really grounded, particularly when up, so I am using the trucker antenna.
