    Im trading my 22′ Airsteam Sport for a 27FB Airstream International Signature this weekend 🙂 I have been traveling off and on now for 6 months and I think I’m going to try full-timing it. I chose Airstream because of the quality and the way they are setup inside, they also trailer really well. I do wish it had more exterior storage and a place for a generator. They have nice resale value as well.

    Happy Travels,

    I did some research on different ways to make sure I had the best internet I could since I own an internet business. I would use just my Verizon Jetpack by itself or use the hotspot from my phone if I could but my Airstream blocks the signal a bit so I need to use an exterior antenna.

    I use a router that accepts my Verizon Jetpack’s sim card. The router also has a place to connect two exterior antenna’s, one for a parks wifi and the other boosts the cell reception. It also will also automatically switch between the Verizon signal or a parks wifi depending what is stronger. I purchased my setup last year so I imagine there are newer systems out there.

    Here is what I use:

    1 x Pepwave Router MAX BR1 with Verizon 3G/4G (MAX-BR1-LTE-V-T) = $499.00
    1 x Micro SIM Adapter (MC-SIM-ADAPT) = $7.99
    1 x 9.5″ Omni antenna (SC-288W) = $57.99
    1 x N/Female to RP-SMA/Male Adapter (RP-3452) = $9.95
    1 x 20 Foot LMR400 Cable (952320) = $41.99
    1 x Omni Spring Mount Antenna – SMA (311133) = $50.99
    1 x 3-Way Omni Mount (901104) = $6.99

    I purchased everthing from 3gStore but I think there are many places where you can buy a similar setup.

    Happy Travels,
