RV WifFi

OzzieCruiser, they are not just a “hotspot”, they will boost the incoming & outgoing signal for your phone. So if you are in an area of poor signal that renders the phone next to useless, it will boost the signal so that the phone is then usable.

I’m not sure by what you mean “using the app”.

A cel fi go allows multiple devices to connect.

How many mobile devices can be connected to the Cel-Fi at one time?

The actual number of devices that the Cel-Fi system can support can vary depending on user location, the type of use and signal strength. The Cel-Fi system is expected to support the needs of a small office/family residence.

Yes, I recommend and have my cel-fi in the car and no problem with signal inside our van.

Range is about 10mtrs from the car.

Thanks Supersi. That's really helpful. I got confused about a phone app from reading another site.

I installed a Telstra Cel-Fi Go last year, before a 10K kms trip through WA.

The WA deserts don’t have too much phone signal, if any, but it worked well enough. It was a bit comical watching the 5 of us, standing around my ute, all making phone calls, sending & receiving SMS’s.

I found it good, to be able to check emails, media & EO, on an iPad, even when mobile on quiet roads. Definitely recommend a Cel Fi, for remote travel.

Hi Shane, It hasn’t been my experience with the Cel Fi that the data connection has been slow however I would expect an impact say at Birdsville during the races or big red bash with massive Telstra system load.

The old saying of "$hit in, $hit out" applies to the Cel-Fe as well. My setup uses the dual boxes with the "Network Unit' connected to the external yagi antenna. The signal is then sent over a wireless connection to the second box which is the "Coverage Unit". This box re-transmits the mobile network signal to your various devices i.e. mobile phones, wireless modem etc.

I paid $1,600.00 to have this installed and my reception went from no service/one bar to a full 5 bars. having the yagi installed as high as possible will increase the signal strength that is received by the Network Unit.



Other problems life network congestion will still effect your service and typically the after school times will still happen as this is a network problem and everyone will be having the same problem.
