This is something we’ve been wondering about! We need to be able to work while we are out on adventures and this seems like it may be just what we need!
Awesome information! Thank you for explaining how it works. We bought a new camper with the Winegard 360+ on top, and there is a plate cover inside with the WiFi logo directly under it. So I pulled the cover off and it is prewired for the gateway, which I have to purchase separately of course. Your video helped me to put together the missing pieces. After watching ur video, we immediately purchased the Winegard gateway from Amazon and looking forward to it coming in. BTW, Verizon needs to pass on to their workers that they do provide services for these products. They are clueless and didn’t know what I was talking about when we went into their store a few weeks ago lol. Thanks again
Erin Miller the plate cover is on my ceiling inside the camper, directly under the Winegard 360+. It seems to be installed in the middle of the camper side to side, and about 3 feet past the midway point front to back. Hope this helps.
Erin Miller I’m currently at Galveston RV Resort and looking around at other campers here and the Winegard on the roof seem to be located in the same spot. About 2-3 feet behind the A/C unit. This puts some a little further back on the roof. I assume their gateway is mounted to the ceiling directly under it same as mine.
CAJNHD thanks so much! Were at the deer lease in Junction TX and I’m trying to set it up on the fly. Found the plate cover on ceiling and the on/off for the 360 as per the manuals and your comments. I’m trying to confirm if the 360 is on and working before I remove ceiling plate cover and install gateway. The 360 should work without it I’m guessing we aren’t that far off the grid to be getting a channel search. Have you used the Winegard app? My app won’t pick up a signal.
The WiFi signal you get from the Winegard is strong because you are right next to it, you need to “log into the Winegard are see how strong the signal it is receiving.
Frank Lentz I did! Without the Winegard we were barely able to connect to the churches internet. After the installation we were able to watch movies on NetFlix! Also since then we were out in the boonies in Michigan and had no WiFi! I connected it to LGE and make it a hot spot! Watched a movie on Netflix and worked online! This works bottom line!
The end shot from above saw him place the unit on a pad but not secure it. Did he secure it or leave it loose? The other question that ought to be discussed is whether that external satellite dome cover had any affect on the service.
Richard Lang good questions! Thanks for asking! #1. Yes, went back and secured it using a home made simple bracket/brace. #2. The dome cover was a concern of mine. However, it had no affect on my service! It works fantastic! I’m extremely pleased with this unit!
10:28 … I show the place to click it in. Pretty self explanatory from there. I have a whole new system now. Check out this video … ruclips.net/video/uPjYKGarg7o/видео.html
Hi thanks for video I’m still waiting for my rig to deliver but I know I have wineguard just did some search but their website wasn’t very clear about how to get internet with ATT but you just clarified adding addition line to account that’s is great help I hope my come with ATt sim so I don’t need to go to the store. Thanks love the video!
Your welcome! Im using it right now and even used it to upload this video...Im about 300 feet from the wifi source and I have full bars...its really great!
You say it boost the Verizon 4g LTE. Is that only with a Verizon sim card inserted and does it only boost the data on our phones or does it also boost the Cell signal for phone calls? Great video by the way. Thanks in advance.
Brett Tuck you know what... your right! I didn’t even realize that I didn’t truly answer that in the video... I’ll change the title and I’ll do a follow up video... btw, it works like a freaking charm! We love it... I’m sitting in a Walmart parking lot ... tapped into Starbucks WiFi at least 500 yards from me and using it to respond to you! Have a better day!
Just get a Cellular Signal Booster, you already have a data plan on your cell phone and, With a Cellular booster, you now have better signal for your cellphone, all your cellphones, even you're friends cellphone when he comes to visit, and you simply turn on your cellular wifi in your phone... It eliminates the need for another data plan that can only be used when you're sitting in your vehicle or RV... The data card you just bought is only good when you're near the rv... Cellular boosters do a much better job of boosting all cellular frequencies no matter who you're with... make sense yet...? After 42 years in communications and 20 plus years in the cellular business, datz what I dooooo dudes... Just increase the data plan on your current device you already have in your pocket... The card you just stuck on the roof is not mobile, it's stuck there, only good when you're close to it... Increase your data and go totally mobile, anywhere, anytime, anyplace. got it.... ? If you still have need and want a wifi extender only, it's a heck of a lot cheaper then a 4g data card...
KC Communications I agree 💯 % except one situations where we are able to get WiFi from a Park or something for free. We love our wineguard but we believe that a cell signal booster is very important. As a matter of fact we are looking for one right now. We don’t want to pay $400 lol
Charles Bray lol 😂 wow... angry much? It’s the number one gizmo still on our coach! Love it! Working on a follow up video now. I hope you’ll enjoy the hell out of it 😂
Actually at the time of this video (5 years ago) Verizon’s hot spot was junk… and even if it was available, it was very limited. Trust me, I have been fulltime for 10 years. I did my research lol
George Fenrich if you just connect to WiFi you don’t need this model and won’t need a SIM card... however, if you get to a place where there’s no WiFi you can turn this into a hot spot with 4GLTE and with that you will need a SIM card
This is something we’ve been wondering about! We need to be able to work while we are out on adventures and this seems like it may be just what we need!
There are 2 versions... I felt like the WiFi plus 4GLTE was better and so far it’s been awesome... enjoy your freedom run!

CAJNHD yea, I’ve heard that about Verizon
Where did you find your plate cover? I’m looking all over trying to figure this out and where to install my gateway! Good stuff thanks!
Erin Miller the plate cover is on my ceiling inside the camper, directly under the Winegard 360+. It seems to be installed in the middle of the camper side to side, and about 3 feet past the midway point front to back. Hope this helps.

Also do you need to always be parked to use it or can you be on the go?
Does it create its own WiFi network with the Verizon 4g?
Hey great review..thanks..may I know whats the plan cost with Verizon?
it was just the cost of an additional line... I have an updated video on wifi that would explain better.
Hi thanks for video I’m still waiting for my rig to deliver but I know I have wineguard just did some search but their website wasn’t very clear about how to get internet with ATT but you just clarified adding addition line to account that’s is great help I hope my come with ATt sim so I don’t need to go to the store.

Thank You. I will get one of these for my RV when I get one.
Allstr2love well I hope it’s soon. Have a great day!
Did you leave that loose inside that dome?
Joshua C lol... good catch ! No sir I went back and fastened down!
Full Time Freedom Run had me worried. Good video.
You say it boost the Verizon 4g LTE. Is that only with a Verizon sim card inserted and does it only boost the data on our phones or does it also boost the Cell signal for phone calls? Great video by the way. Thanks in advance.
Yes it is with a Verizon SIM card... it becomes its own line! Thanks so much!
So do you get unlimited data from the Verizon sim on the Winegard satellite?
Throttle Junki3 yes and no... after 15 gigs it drops to 600 mb... but it’s really hard to use the 15 gigs in one month
Lol I manage to burn that fast gaming man can’t wait to get a good unlimited WiFi/data for RVs
Great information... Something to consider!
after 3 weeks we love it!... would be great in your new rv
what size is the right size?
what do you mean? Sorry, confused by the question.
Help. How do I activate, setup, get?
Juli & Lisa Home who is your cell phone provider?
Att
The new MH we bought has it installed with an att SIM card. It mentions “Togo” along with winegard connecT 2.0 4G LTE ETC
Yes, but what cell service do you currently have for your phones?
Juli & Lisa Home ok great you already have att for your cell phones? Then all you need to do is call take out the SIM card and have them activate it
Has anyone tried this on games like call of duty or fortnite abd is this satellite internet
It’s good but not as good as my new service... I just uploaded a view video about this new option.

Skip to 11:47 for the best part
you never said if it worked or not, maybe you should retitle this video to installation WTF
Brett Tuck you know what... your right! I didn’t even realize that I didn’t truly answer that in the video...

I am going to get one.
Im using it now and love it!
Where the hell is the review on this?
Charles Bray lol 😂 wow... angry much? It’s the number one gizmo still on our coach! Love it! Working on a follow up video now. I hope you’ll enjoy the hell out of it 😂
Literally could have gotten a cell booster and used hotspot from cell phone 🙄
Actually at the time of this video (5 years ago) Verizon’s hot spot was junk… and even if it was available, it was very limited. Trust me, I have been fulltime for 10 years. I did my research lol
Cool
You lost me WHY do I need to get a new SIM card???
George Fenrich if you just connect to WiFi you don’t need this model and won’t need a SIM card... however, if you get to a place where there’s no WiFi you can turn this into a hot spot with 4GLTE and with that you will need a SIM card
