so i could save some doshMotorhome WiFi.....they have them.
I would give it another try , failing that try mounting it onto a pole rather than just on the side of the MH to give it more height.I was thinking of selling mine as well as I haven't had a lot of joy using it. It will only pick up on a clear line of sight about 50 yards from the source.
I'm going to try again on my trip away to Spain from Wednesday once more. After that if no joy it will be for sale.
I was informed it could pick up around a kilometre away.

Having seen other people use them and experience with my own clone if you are trying to connect to a typical home router which is inside a building then anything more than a couple of hundred yards is a bonus.I was informed it could pick up around a kilometre away.

I already have the Mifi unit and the 3 12gb sim cards ,, just wanted to have something to use if a free option is available.. free is always goodSnap!
I have an iBoost and have had very little success using it. I now use Mifi and have internet almost everywhere.

Sure is, so long as you don't have to fork out a load of dosh for an antenna etc to receive it ...I already have the Mifi unit and the 3 12gb sim cards ,, just wanted to have something to use if a free option is available.. free is always good

But do bear in mind that height is not always the answer. There have been occasions when I have had to mount mine low down in order to achieve line of sight beneath tree branches/foliage.I would give it another try , failing that try mounting it onto a pole rather than just on the side of the MH to give it more height.
True ... but I don't think I'd be able to get a cable long enough to link to my home set-up so I can use it whilst on holiday abroad!For the benefit of people who don't know any better a Mifi device, no matter what network it's on, is not by any means a replacement for a proper Wifi/broadband connection.
They are not the same thing at all.

I now have both systems , if i find i don't get much use from the wifi then ii'll re sell it,, as its a good bit of kit and obviously works well for some people.. i think its area dependant & where its located as wellThat's what I've done now.
I'll keep trying though. It worked when we went to the site last winter we are going to use this winter in Benidorm

Ouch!! hate it when that happens , strange enough i said to the wife yesterday we will have to make sure we get all our tech stuff has their updates done before i get the internet disconnected next week, as would hate them to then update on the MiFi ..lol..notI have both a Mifi and Iboost. I use the iboost mainly at home for watching the odd movie, updates on laptop etc. Bought the iboost last year and its well paid for itself. Saved me line rental at home every month.
Turned my Mifi on last week while we were away and 3G was gone in a matter of hrs. Unbeknown to me both mine and Alan laptops done updates.
Yep. It got changed after the horse had bolted.You should simply set you kit to update only when connected to wifi
