“Starlink is AMAZING. As an early adopter, I’m grandfathered into a residential with portability plan. I also built a 12-volt setup to run it in my RV without having to cut any wires.”
Host, Boothbay Craft Brewery
“We have a rooftop large Starlink and love it! We can get service in areas where Dish would have failed to get a signal. No complaints at all.”
Member, Joanne S.
“Starlink has been a game-changer for us. We used to rely on hotspots, but now we get reliable service even in remote areas where cell signals are weak. We’re able to stream TV, stay connected, and work remotely without any issues.”
Randy B.
“Haven’t stepped up to Starlink yet. T-Mobile Home has been great for us, though. We’ve had solid service all across the country, even during travel days.”
Member, Paul & Jane O.
“We RV’d from Washington to Texas and back with our T-Mobile home internet plugged in the trailer. Our kids were able to use it 95% of the time during travel days. Best decision ever! Parent life hack win!”
The Lost Texan Family
“Yes, a WiFi device from T-Mobile has served us well. We have 120GB of hotspot data on both phones and a cell signal booster antenna for when the signal is weak.”
Laura S.
“We use a Verizon MiFi 5G, and it’s worked for us most places. But in remote areas, we sometimes need to rely on other solutions like Starlink.”
Karen F.
“Had a MiFi hotspot from Verizon, but we still had lots of places out in Idaho and Montana where we couldn’t connect. We got a Starlink, and it’s made all the difference.”
Robert B.
“Starlink is great, but we still carry a Verizon Hotspot as a backup. It’s nice to have multiple options, especially when you’re in the mountains or other areas with challenging connectivity.”
Sherry F.
“We use our Samsung S22 phone with a WeBoost Destination RV and a Yagi antenna on a 25' high pole. In places like Yellowstone and Grand Teton, where we’d usually have weak signals, WeBoost has made all the difference. We’re able to watch Sling TV and stay connected even in heavily wooded areas.”
Jerry P.
“Just use my phone with WeBoost. If I need more than that, I head into town and use public WiFi. It’s simple and effective for our needs.”
Jinx T.
“Brand new Somi 5G from Solis. It was absolutely perfect during our last trip. We found that it picked up the strongest signal, which was very helpful in areas where cell service was spotty.”
Maryse C.
“Solis hotspot finds the strongest signal from all cell services. It’s been a reliable backup when other connections fail.”
